[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-3640?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] James Livingston commented on WFLY-3640: ---------------------------------------- Stuart said in conversation elsewhere (prior to WF 8.1 being release obviously): "Unfortunately this won't work at the moment. The basic issue is that at the moment the deployment layer expects to be able to identify everything that needs to be injected at runtime and create a component model and dependencies for them. When you add a class this this the deployment layer has not created a component for the MyListener class, because it has not seen it. There is not really any easy fix for this, although it is something that I would like to address in WF 8.1. Have you tried using CDI (i.e. putting a beans.xml in the jar with MyListener)? This should definitely work in WF upstream" -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2.6#6264)
