[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-14?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.sys... ] Richard Hightower commented on CDI-14: -------------------------------------- Some utility methods on the BeanManager for making common operations equate to oneliners would be nice.... public Object getBeanByName(String name); public <T> T getBeanByName(Class<T> type, String name); public <T> T getBeanByType(Class<T> type, Annotation... qualifiers); Or perhaps just add a utility class that takes a BeanManager and provides these if we don't want to clutter up BeanManager. This would be for cases when a developer can't use injection. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
