[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-14?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.sys... ] Arne Limburg commented on CDI-14: --------------------------------- We even could go a step further and provide an interface to the application developer without the need of a bean-manager. What about adding the following class to the spec: {noformat} public class ObjectInstance implements Instance<Object> { private Instance<Object> delegate; public ObjectInstance() { //lookup bean-manager via JNDI, //get Instance<Object> from bean-manager //and set delegate } //methods are delegated to the delegate } {noformat} Every CDI-user could instantiate this class and use it to get contextual instances. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
