Hi,

I noticed a difference between using CDI.current() and initialContext.lookup("java:comp/BeanManager") when called from within a container jar (e.g. Mojarra) in a modular application server (e.g. JBoss/WildFly).

With CDI.current() the bean manager I get when called from within Mojarra is:

"Weld BeanManager for com.sun.jsf-impl:main.additionalClasses [bean count=44]"

With initialContext.lookup("java:comp/BeanManager") it's:

Weld BeanManager for example_app.ear/example_app.war/WEB-INF/classes [bean count=97]

Where "example_app" is an EAR application that I used for testing.

I wonder, is this difference intended and did I overlook something, or is it an unfortunate consequence of something? An additional problem is that not all (modular) application servers act the same here. E.g. in GlassFish/Payara I get the application bean manager in both cases.

Kind regards,

Arjan Tijms
