And incidentally, the mailto link at
http://openwebbeans.apache.org/community.html is a link to users [at]
openwebbeans.apache.org - with an extra s at the end. Please fix that.
Caused some confusion when I tried to send mail to that address and it
bounced "user unknown"

Subject: OWB, Servlets and Jetty 9
Hey all,
New to CDI - I'm working on switching my JEE webapps from JSF managed
beans to CDI.
I use Jetty, exclusively, and JSF works fine with Jetty and OWB, but
@Inject in servlets (and presumably elsewhere) does not.
I started out with JBoss Weld, which ships with Jetty 9, but trying to
get Weld working in my IDE was a nightmare and I gave up. (IntelliJ
IDEA Ultimate 2016.2 if anyone cares, but this morning I upgraded to
2016.3)
So as an alternative to getting the bundled CDI functionality to work,
I tried OpenWebBeans instead and now I'm good to go, except that I
can't use DI in the servlets I'm creating.
I have a workaround (query BeanManager through JNDI), so this is not a
life-or-death urgent issue (not even close!) - but it would be nice if
I could get it working. A mailing list search turned up
http://markmail.org/search/?q=servlet+injection+jetty+list%3Aorg.apache.openwebbeans.user+order%3Adate-backward#query:servlet%20injection%20jetty%20list%3Aorg.apache.openwebbeans.user%20order%3Adate-backward+page:2+mid:gzti4hxxl76lqyhf+state:results
That thread states that Jetty 8 is buggy and that the OWB team even
gave up on working with Jetty and switched to Tomcat* - but the thread
is from 2012, and Jetty 8 was EOL'd a while ago.
So my questions are:
** What is the current state of @Inject using OWB and Jetty?
** If it's not working, what would be required to *get* it working?
Weld can do DI into Servlets and Filters in Jetty 7, 8 or 9, and into
Servlet listeners in 9.1.1 or newer. (according to
https://docs.jboss.org/weld/reference/latest/en-US/html/environments.html#_jetty)
But I'd much rather use OWB.
Thanks,
Steve
* OWB and Tomcat are both ASF projects. Weird that y'all didn't use
Tomcat from the start.
