> OSGi containers and other modular environments tend to hide service files and consider them implementation details. That means that a naive current classloader based implementation won't discover the various CDI implementations.
> There are several approaches to try and work around this problem in EE specs
> h4. JPA 2's approach
> JPA 2 does have a static getter / setter pair {code}PersistenceProviderResolverHolder.getPersistenceProviderResolver()
> PersistenceProviderResolverHolder.setPersistenceProviderResolver(){code} 
> which holds the resolver to use. A modular environment is free to override the default resolver.
> h4. Bean Validation's approach
> Bean Validation uses a different approach to work around the nasty static field.
> {code}
> Validation
>   .byDefaultProvider()
>     .providerResolver( myOSGiResolver )
>   .configure() //we have ways to customize the ValidatorFactory further
>   .buildValidatorFactory();
> {code}
> Note that Bean VAlidation approach has another benefit, you can physically ask for a specific Bean Validation provider implementation
> {code}
> Validation
>   .byProvider( HibernateValidator.class )
>   .configure()
>     .ignoreXmlConfiguration() //bean validation configuration
>     .failSafe() //Hibernate specific configuration (type safe)
>   .buildValidatorFactory();
> {code}
