From my experience this is a problem, especially for (partial) integration

Seam team, and others on the CDI EG, Looking for feedback on an issue Marius and I discussed in CDI 1.0. This is potentially an issue - we weren't sure if people had seen it in the real world, hopefully you may have seen feedback in the forums or at conferences. This relates closely to the interceptor/decorator/alternative enabling discussion. Typically an extension class is packaged in a jar, along with a META-INF/services/javax.enterprise.inject.spi.Extension file which enables it. However, this means that an application, or another extension, has no way of disabling extensions. Is this a problem, really? Or just theoretically. _______________________________________________ cdi-dev mailing list cdi-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/cdi-dev

I remember that we discussed this 2 years ago ;) In Apache MyFaces CODI we introduced an internal Deactivatable interface which by default gets implemented via public boolean isActivated() { return ClassDeactivation.isClassActivated(getClass()); } (another internal class). and in the Extension itself if(!isActivated()) { return; } A similar mechanism should be available in each bigger Extension library (not only containing 1 single CDI Extension) But would be helpful to have something like that in the standard of course!
