Does CDI need anything for replicating conversation or session scoped beans in a cluster?

I find pushing it at organizations an uphill battle. When I say that acronym, a lot of folks still roll their eyes. IMHO, the best solution for a quickstart is the one that does the job with the least number of moving parts. Ok. I was just worried it could be a lot of boilerplate in the Servlet. Or we could do HTML5 + REST. > If there's 1 page and HTTP Basic Authentication, would we gain anything by having JSF? Obviously am happy to accommodate what others want. No, I'm just thinking that writing lots of HTML in servlets is pretty nasty. > I was thinking: > • HTTP Basic Authentication > • A servlet displaying a counter and the current login name. > • @Stateful EJBs injected to maintain state. > • @Stateless EJB injected just to show how. Well, to me the priority is to show CDI session scope working in a cluster. I think more people will use this than EJBs. We could do a second quickstart to show EJBs. I'm not sure why we need to pull HTTP auth into it? > WDYT? > > Thanks, > Steven > > > On 7/12/2012 4:55 PM, Pete Muir wrote: >> Hi Steven >> >> Yes, we want a session replication quickstart :-) >> >> We should, as you say, update it to use CDI (why an SLSB?) and Servlet 3.
