[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-726) Deprecate before dropping CDI.setCDIProvider

[Martin Kouba (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-726?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13583734#comment-13583734 ] 

Martin Kouba commented on CDI-726:
----------------------------------

And yes, this method should not be used by a user/library/framework. Normally, a CDI impl should use a service provider and in rare cases an integrator may set an impl-specific provider manually.

> CDI.setCDIProvider allows to switch the cdi provider at *any* time by *anyone*. This lead to issues integrating multiple libraries doing it + is not a real user facing API, it is actually a server internal.
> Proposal is to deprecate the method, remove its implementation (always throw an IllegalStateException or just do a noop) and finally drop the method after one or two releases since it can't really be used except for very simple apps.
