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

[Richard Hightower (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-14?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12601190#comment-12601190 ] 

Richard Hightower commented on CDI-14:
--------------------------------------

Some utility methods on the BeanManager for making common operations equate to oneliners would be nice....


public Object getBeanByName(String name);
public <T> T getBeanByName(Class<T> type, String name);
public <T> T getBeanByType(Class<T> type, Annotation... qualifiers);

Or perhaps just add a utility class that takes a BeanManager and provides these if we don't want to clutter up BeanManager.

This would be for cases when a developer can't use injection.
