Tomas Remes commented on CDI-682:
---------------------------------
Feel free to propose some API proposal. Just note that bean removal basically means bean
graph reconstruction because you need to check all the related injection points, related
interceptors, decorators, etc. of the given bean so it basically means the same as CDI
container restart IMO.
Allow unregistration of CDI beans at run time, through API
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: CDI-682
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-682
Project: CDI Specification Issues
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Beans, Events, Interceptors
Affects Versions: 1.2.Final
Reporter: Samba Siva Rao Kolusu
much like the ability to register beans at runtime through API
(
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-114)
also provide API
BeanManager::unregister("beanName"), or BeanManager::unregister(XYZBean.class)
to unregister beans at runtime, and corresponding events (BeforeUnregisteringBean,
AfterUnregisteringBean, etc) so that interested listeners can take appropriate actions in
the event of a bean getting removed from CDI context.
these two together will help build pluggable web applications much like OSGI modules.
right now, installing new beans or removing exiting beans requires restart of CDI
container, if not web application. with the addition of these two features [registering
beans at run time, through BeanManager::register(XYZBean.class) ], and unregistering beans
at runtime [BeanManager::unregister(XYZBean.class) ] true modularity comes to Java EE
world, without the necessity to restart
