[Mark Struberg (JIRA)]

Mark Struberg commented on CDI-14:
----------------------------------

Fab, yes we should realy make it clear that those new and all the other BeanManager stuff is only intended for hardcore use (e.g. in parts where you dont have injection available) and should normally not be needed.

regarding getReference(): this returns you a proxy ("Contextual Reference") for the internal contextual instances. So this stuff will give you lifecycle managed instances only.

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