Pete Muir commented on WELD-778:
--------------------------------
Mark, can you expand on (a) BDAs infringe on other EE specs? This sounds like a
problem. Otherwise most of what you say is somewhat circular as you complain
about the lack of classloading structure definition in EE, and then go on to
complain about the way CDI get's around this lack of structure. In neither CDI
nor Weld can we define the classloader structure for EE, so we need to be able
to get around it. I am happy to listen to alternative proposals which could
augment/replace bean archives, however I don't see them as that much of a
problem (yes, it has been hard to impl and hard to get consistent behavior
across platforms, but I think this has little to do with bean archives, and
everything to do with the variations in classloading).
It is clearly defined what an application is in Java EE, please refer to
chapter 8 of the Java EE specification. Figure EE.8-1 gives a clear overview of
this, describing the EAR as the Java EE application. Of course, when a war is
deployed outside of an EAR, it constitutes an application as defined by the
servlet spec. This area is not in doubt, and AFAIK there is no confusion here,
I have never seen a general concern about this.
