[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-150) Offer the ability to explicitly assemble an application from component bean archives

[Pete Muir (JIRA)]

     [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-150?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Pete Muir updated CDI-150:
--------------------------

        Fix Version/s: TBD
                           (was: 1.1 (Proposed))
    Affects Version/s: 1.0


I'm slipping this to TBD as for CDI 1.1 we are still following the "modularity" outlined by Java EE, which is dependent on Manifest's Classpath and EAR structures.

> See the problem described in this comment on CDI-87:

> Solution proposal 1:
> Every beans.xml gets an id:
> {code}
> <beans id="org.jboss.seam.solder">
>   ...
> </beans>
> {code}
> Then it's possible to depend on other beans.xml files:
> {code}
> <beans id="org.jboss.seam.security">
>   <dependency refid="org.jboss.seam.solder"/>
>   ...
> </beans>
> {code}
> So when guvnor depends on security, it can automatically, transitively inherit solder (without depending on it directly):
> {code}
> <beans id="org.drools.guvnor">
>   <dependency refid="org.jboss.seam.security"/>
>   ...
> </beans>
> {code}
> So when guvnor upgrades to the next version of seam-security, it doesn't need to worry if seam-security still uses seam-solder and whether or not it requires any new bean sets (such as seam-international starting from seam-security 1.2).
