I answered this already in IRC. We can't rely upon CDI being available in the gateway environment, and we didn't want to ship with a bundled CDI solution as they all tend to be large with a substantial number of transitive dependencies and would limit our ability to work on embedded platforms.

Charles - there's no reason that the karaf version of apiman needs to use resteasy. The REST layer is, I believe, purely jax-rs - so you could certainly try to get it running using CXF and blueprint or whatever technologies are baked into karaf these days. That said, the karaf support is already sporting a large number of changes, extra classes, new configuration, etc. I'm starting to worry about the long-term maintenance cost of supporting running on karaf. Given the size of our development team. -Eric On 2/12/2016 6:02 AM, Charles Moulliard wrote:

I don't quite understand what you mean. Do you have some proposal for a lightweight CDI impl for the gateway?
