Enhancing Java SE bootstrap API ------------------------------- Key: CDI-568 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-568 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Java SE Integration Affects Versions: 2.0-EDR1 Reporter: Antoine Sabot-Durand Assignee: Antoine Sabot-Durand As discussed during our Paris Face to Face meeting, we should work on enhancing the SE bootstrap API designed for EDR1. The current version has the following flaws: * Use existing classes was a bad idea (of mine). It prevents us to remove bootstrap classes in Java EE and force the impl to manage extra work if a user in EE try to use boostrap API. * While the parameter map is useful, I find it's not fitting the CDI strong typed philosophy, so it would be better to use it as fallback for implementation specific configuration. * Don't provide a nice way to programmatically configure the container behavior. That's why I'd like to update the proposed API and provide a more complete approach. Starting with the new [Weld SE api|https://github.com/weld/core/blob/master/environments/se/core/src/mai...] could be interesting
