I would like to discuss including the Web Beans RI in the next release of JBoss 5. As Web Beans is quite young, I think we should include it as a "Technology Preview". The included version should be at least 1.0.0.ALPHA2, out in the next couple of weeks. We have a deployer for Web Beans, which looks like: $ ls -lR webbeans.deployer total 1008 drwxr-xr-x 4 pmuir admin 136 8 Jan 12:49 META-INF -rw-r--r-- 1 pmuir admin 484056 8 Jan 12:49 google-collections.jar drwxr-xr-x 6 pmuir admin 204 8 Jan 12:49 lib-int -rw-r--r-- 1 pmuir admin 26744 8 Jan 12:49 webbeans-ri-int- microcontainer.jar webbeans.deployer/META-INF: total 16 -rw-r--r-- 1 pmuir admin 286 8 Jan 12:49 jboss-structure.xml -rw-r--r-- 1 pmuir admin 1686 8 Jan 12:49 webbeans-deployers-jboss- beans.xml webbeans.deployer/lib-int: total 560 -rw-r--r-- 1 pmuir admin 37664 8 Jan 12:49 webbeans-api.jar -rw-r--r-- 1 pmuir admin 29714 8 Jan 12:49 webbeans-ri-int- jbossas.jar -rw-r--r-- 1 pmuir admin 6713 8 Jan 12:49 webbeans-ri-spi.jar -rw-r--r-- 1 pmuir admin 201152 8 Jan 12:49 webbeans-ri.jar All jars in lib-int are inserted into the application's classpath by a deployer. The only task I can see to include Web Beans is to add the deployer to the JBoss AS build - I can do this (with Ales' help ;-). Anything I'm missing? Pete
