The idea is good. I would move the DeploymentException into javax.enterprise.inject.spi or
javax.enterprise.inject.deploy package. Usually you would not catch it in application code
and it would just "pollute" the public API.

Dan Allen updated CDI-118:
--------------------------
Description:
While it's true that deployment exceptions are not a public API when developing with
the CDI programming model, they are a public API for tools and in testing environments. It
would be useful to standardize the deployment-related error and exception classes so that
these tools don't have to rely on classes from the implementation.
One example occurs in the CDI-TCK and it's counterpart, Arquillian. A test may want
to verify that the code will result in a deployment error. Currently, to detect this
exception, it's necessary to rely on an implementation specific exception class, which
makes the test non-portable.
Another example is a tool that starts a CDI runtime or server that provides CDI. The tool
has to check for the implementation-specific exception to know if the deployment error is
caused by CDI (and to capture and report that error). It's important both when CDI is
used for standalone bootstrap and for a container that provides CDI.
Proposed API:
javax.enterprise.inject.DeploymentException extends RuntimeException
