[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (CDI-14) Add instance() method to BeanManager

[Pete Muir (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-14?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12600712#comment-12600712 ] 

Pete Muir commented on CDI-14:
------------------------------

Given we already have a method called getReference with somewhat different semantics I don't think we should overload it's meaning. Furthermore, Instance<> is the API for "dynamic" injection, and we should *not* introduce a new API for this. My proposal simply makes this API more accessible in non-managed component.

> Currently obtaining a contextual reference is quite a complex operation, adding a method like:
> Instance<Object> instance();
> would make it much easier.
