[seam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (SOLDER-47) Cannot use Solder in Glassfish 3.1

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SOLDER-47?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Dan Allen commented on SOLDER-47: --------------------------------- There's an important detail left out in the explanation here. Seam Solder registers it's own beans manually using the BeanManager#addAnnotatedType() API. See ELExtension [1] for an example. That's one reason why it doesn't require a beans.xml. This is the spec way of registering classes from third-party libraries as beans. Also, the reason beans.xml isn't require in an extension library is because extensions are loaded as META-INF/services, which makes no mention (nor has no prerequisite) on a beans.xml file. This is a standard part of Java 6 (which can be provided for Java 5 by a spec implementation, as Weld does).
