[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (CDI-123) Using Seam XML extension for CDI and Candi XML as a guide, let's add the ability to do XML config back into the specification

George Gastaldi commented on CDI-123:
-------------------------------------

IMHO, this feature should remain as an Extension as it is done with Seam XML module.

We could, however, provide a fluent configuration API so that the CDI module configuration would not rely solely on XML and annotations.

> Annotations and Alternatives should always be the first line of offense for doing injection, decoration and interception. However, there are times when you want to configure things that don't fit well into this model. This is also useful for testing.
> This is not to give up type safeness via annotations, but to have some additional flexibility.
