Re: [webbeans-dev] jsr299-utils

Before you go too far down this road, you might want to get a new draft of the spec from Gavin. Recently an SPI was added specifically for injection into third-party objects, so I don't think the project you're proposing needs to exist. -Matt On Fri, May 22, 2009 at 6:34 PM, Clint Popetz <cpopetz(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > I'm investigating how to best move non-contextual injection into a > webbeans extension that's jsr299-impl independent.
