[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-540?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.sy... ] Martin Kouba updated CDI-540: ----------------------------- Description: {{CDIProvider.isInitialized()}} javadoc should be clarified. I believe the spec should be more specific and define what it means for a CDIProvider to be initialized. E.g. _"a {{CDIProvider}} is initialized if at least one CDI container was started and is still running"_. {{CDI.shutdown()}} currently must throw an {{IllegalStateException}} if the container is already stopped (actually, the javadoc is missing this piece of information). However, there is no way how to find out whether a CDI container is running or not. {{CDIProvider.isInitialized()}} would be usable if multiple running containers were forbidden (which I hope will not be). Also it wouldn't make sense to ask an instance of {{CDIProvider}} whether a concrete {{CDI}} instance is running... was:I believe the spec should be more specific and define what it means for a CDIProvider to be initialized.
