Dependency on a deployed CDI module - beans are not injected ------------------------------------------------------------ Key: WFLY-4419 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-4419 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Feature Request Components: CDI / Weld Affects Versions: 8.2.0.Final Reporter: Dirk Buchhorn Assignee: Stuart Douglas Fix For: 9.0.0.Beta2 I want to deploy two modules to wildfly 8.2.0 The module-a contains beans (and later CDI producer and other stuff) and module-b use this beans. Beans from module-a should be injected with CDI in module-b (There is a beans.xml in both modules.). All works fine if the module-a is direct referenced as dependency like this: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.2"> <deployment> <dependencies> <module name="deployment.module-a-1.0.0.jar" meta-inf="import" /> </dependencies> </deployment> </jboss-deployment-structure> But the dependency to module-a should be without to know the deployed version, so I tried to set a module alias and (or) to re-export module-a under a different name like this. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.2"> <deployment> <module-alias name="deployment.module-a-alias" /> </deployment> </jboss-deployment-structure> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.2"> <module name="deployment.module-a"> <module-alias name="deployment.module-a-alias" /> <dependencies> <module name="deployment.module-a-1.0.0.jar" export="true" meta-inf="export" /> </dependencies> </module> </jboss-deployment-structure> But either the module alias or a re-export under a new module name worked. The reported exception is always: Caused by: org.jboss.weld.exceptions.DeploymentException: WELD-001408: Unsatisfied dependencies for type XYZ with qualifiers @Default The module alias fit my requirements and I guess is should work with CDI but it dosn't. Two questions: - Why CDI don't work with module alias and module re-export? - How to deal with dependencies and module versions?
