[weld-dev] A significantly negative article on Weld

Yes, you can either do it via an Extension or much easier via a @Produces method ;)

In any case, it wont work without adding code or configuration!

If you go that route, you lose the ability to inject instances of

third party classes without defining a @Produces method.  That may be

preferable to the existing problems caused by default @Dependents, but

I wanted to point it out for clarity.

Actually, there is one other approach to registering a class from a non-bean archive (no beans.xml), which is used in Weld Extensions. You can add the annotated types explicitly in an extension:

    void beforeBeanDiscovery(@Observes BeforeBeanDiscovery event, BeanManager beanManager)   {      event.addAnnotatedType(beanManager.createAnnotatedType(BeanIAm.class));
   }
