[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-659) Introduce a provider in-specific servlet listener

[Martin Kouba (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-659?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13333601#comment-13333601 ] 

Martin Kouba commented on CDI-659:
----------------------------------

Tomas is right. We would have to specify the Servlet container support first as there are other problems we would have to deal with (e.g. read-only JNDI). By the way, an impl. may leverage {{javax.servlet.ServletContainerInitializer}} API to initialize the CDI container (this should work on most recent versions of Tomcat, Jetty, etc.).

> Currently, each provider (OWB, Weld) provides a servlet listener for registering CDI in a plain servlet container.  Looking at other specs, e.g. JAX-RS, references to an implementation in-specific way to register your services are provided.  We should do the same for CDI, allowing a user to register a servlet listener without needing to leverage provider-specific classes.
