I brought up this point regarding architecture diagrams and pics/figures in
general in JSRs and GKing responded that they do not belong in the specs.
But I agree with DAllen, this needs to be provided somewhere, whether in the
Weld ref doc or the EE6 tutorial or some other document. Users need to have
a very clear understanding of how all the pieces in EE6 fit together and we
all know that a pic is worth 1000 words. The SMPC diagram in SiA book is a
very good example of how valuable a pic can be.
How can there be no such architecture? CDI invisibly ingegrates with the
rest of the modules of the EE6 system? Perhaps that's the nature of a DI
container?

I've tried to explain this before: there *is* no such
architecture.
There *is* no "handoff". IA particular container (e.g. JBoss, or
GlassFish) might have an architecture that involves a separate EJB,
CDI and web container, but that architecture is *not* defined by the
specs. It's *very* misleading to talk about CDI as being somehow
separate from EJB or from the rest of the EE container.
