Re: [cdi-dev] With the end of Java Config...

Yep, it contains a simple but extendable notion of ProjectStage, too;-) On Sun, Sep 7, 2014 at 2:19 PM, John D.

You can do staged config also using xml, or based on a database or json config service. Staging as well as, more generally speaking, environment dependent config is more like to select/filter the right config that targets the current (runtime) environment. This might include stages, but also many other aspects are feasible and common (server, tier, ear, war, tenant ...). Since these aspects are per se very complex, it might be advisable to leave them out of any spec (even a dedicated config JSR would probably not be capable of covering these within the relatively short EE timeframe)... >> >> >> >> >>2014-09-05 23:30 GMT+02:00 Werner Keil <werner.keil(a)gmail.com&gt;: >> >>Jens/all, >>> >>> >>>A sort of "staging" already was possible using CDI earlier, see examples like this: >>>http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16907185/multiple-cdi-configuration-profiles-devel-beta-qa-production-in-one-war >>> >>> >>>DeltaSpike also includes type-safe staging that goes beyond the primitive, hard-coded JSF enum. >>> >>> >>>If that works without XML, while still allowing flexible configuration for different stages or to add and "inject" additional stages maybe even on a tenant basis (for Cloud scenarios) I could see something like that work without XML.
