> If an EntityManager resource is made available through a Producer method and the method is annotated with a passivating scope as shown below, Weld today fails
> with this error message: " WELD-000053 Producers cannot declare passivating scope and return a non-serializable class"
> --- producer method snippet ---
>     @PersistenceUnit(unitName = "UDEMpu")
>     private EntityManagerFactory emf;
>     @Produces
>     @ConversationScoped
>     @UserDatabase
>     public EntityManager create() {
>         return emf.createEntityManager();
>     }
> --- producer method snippet ---
> The current workaround is to not use a "passivating scoped" producer method  and fall back to annotating the "passivating scoped" producer field with @PersistenceContext.
> Pete's idea is to enhance the user experience for a user who expects this to work by proxying the EMF and ensuring that the createEntityManager returns a proxy that is Serializable.
