[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-573) Review code of CDI class to switch to ServiceLoader

[Antoine Sabot-Durand (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-573?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13141443#comment-13141443 ] 

Antoine Sabot-Durand commented on CDI-573:
------------------------------------------

PR sent.
Code was simplified relying on JDK ServiceLoader class.
We could simplify more since the only provider used is the first found (see {{configuredProvider}} initialization in {{getCDIProvider()}} method).

Question is, as we didn't had tests for this code, how can we make sure that the behavior stays the same ?

> Right now {{CDI}} seems to mimics the JDK service loader mechanism in the the private {{findAllProviders}} method.
> In order to get rid of useless code in the API and to limit compatibility issues with JDK9 and jigsaw, I think we should change this code and use Service Loader instead of doing something similar.
