Stuart,

The problem with this approach is that I need to introduce a dependency on org.jboss.as:jboss-as-weld, which depends on org.jboss.as:jboss-as-transactions. This introduces a cyclic dependency. org.jboss.as:jboss-as-weld is needed for the WeldDeploymentMarker and to use WeldAttachments.PORTABLE_EXTENSIONS.

You can do this for every deployment, if beans.xml is not present it won't do anything

I assume this is done by the three tests at the top of the deploy method? Therefore, I would need to use WeldDeploymentMarker.

you basically just need to attach it under org.jboss.as.weld.deployment.WeldAttachments#PORTABLE_EXTENSIONS for the top level deployment.
 
Again, I can't do this without access to WeldAttachments.PORTABLE_EXTENSIONS.

To break this cycle, I think I would need to create a new maven module and subsytem called, for example, transactions-cdi. This seems a bit over-kill. Is there an alternative you can think of?

Thanks,

Paul.

Registering it in a DUP in the transactions subsystem is fine.

Have a look in org.jboss.as.weld.deployment.processors.WeldPortableExtensionProcessor#loadAttachments for an example of what you need to do, you basically just need to attach it under org.jboss.as.weld.deployment.WeldAttachments#PORTABLE_EXTENSIONS for the top level deployment.

I'm implementing JTA 1.2, and part of it is to develop a new CDI
context. I'm currently registering that via an Extension in the
javax.enterprise.inject.spi.Extension file. The problem with this is
that this is a burden on the application developer. Alternatively, I
could register it in a DUP in the transactions subsytem. I'd probably
have to register it for every deployment, as I don't think I can detect
if it's needed.

@pmuir said that you would probably know what I should do.

Thanks,

Paul.
