The CDIProvider serves as a kind of SPI for CDI's static methods to
be able to call into the implementation. I don't think reusing it
also as a user-facing code is a good idea. What people suggesting to
reuse CDIProvider had in mind, I think, was to reuse it as the SPI
for talking to the CDI implementation instead. That way, the
initialize() static method of CDIContainer/StartedCDI/whatever we
call it can use CDIProvider internally to actually start the
container.<br>
<br>
In addition, the current proposal does not make it possible to
implement parallel container instances.<br>

<div>Apologies for being a week late on getting this doc
together. I had some personal issues pop up after my leg came
out of its cast that consumed most of my week last week.</div>

<div>Anywho, I've updated the doc with a summary of what was
discussed with CDI SE bootstrap support. You can find that
here: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LgsGT-AAlrF72Z5pW4xNQiVjUHGUME46ZmB-wwF35Yw/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1LgsGT-AAlrF72Z5pW4xNQiVjUHGUME46ZmB-wwF35Yw/edit?usp=sharing</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>There are two minor changes that I made from where we last
discussed, as when I was putting together code I found some
gaps and figured it best to fix them here than later.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. CDIProvider does not implement AutoCloseable. Since CDI
class maintains a reference to the provider, implementing
AutoCloseable was not adding anything.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2. I added a method boolean isInitialized() so that the
caller can know if they need to start the container (or if
it's already running).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Locally, I've also modified the CDI.current() method to use
getCDIProvider() instead of internally finding the provider
since we now have a getter.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>One thing I'd like to get feedback on is if calling
initialize/shutdown in a container should throw
IllegalStateException, or probably better to throw
UnsupportedOperationException when called in EE containers.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Let me know your thoughts.</div>
