[webbeans-dev] binding Manager to JNDI on Jetty

[Dan Allen]

Cool. So I will update the web beans docs so that people know how to
configure it. I'm also going to port this into the tomcat example (which I
hope to call servlet-numberguess). I'm also open to the prefix webapp- or
war- if you don't like servlet. I just need some way to give an indication
that it doesn't not build an EAR and does not depend on standard Java EE
features (like JTA or @PersistenceContext).
