> Instead of making the developer add the Weld Servle listener in their web.xml when using weld-servlet, might we consider registering it for them automatically but including it in a web.xml fragment or TLD that's bundled in weld-servlet.jar? The benefit of using the TLD is that it would work in pre-Servlet 3.0 environments.
> META-INF/web-fragment.xml
> <web-fragment xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
>     xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
>     xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-fragment_3_0.xsd"
>     version="3.0">
>    <listener>
>       <listener-class>org.jboss.weld.environment.servlet.Listener</listener-class>
>    </listener>
> </web-fragment>
> META-INF/weld.tld
> <taglib xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"

>        http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-jsptaglibrary_2_0.xsd"
>     version="2.0">
>     <description>
>        An empty tag library that registers a listener to bootstrap Weld in a Servlet container.
>     </description>
>     <tlib-version>1.0</tlib-version>

>     <uri>http://jboss.org/weld</uri>
>     <!--
>        This ServletContextListener initializes the runtime environment of the CDI
>        Reference Implementation (Weld) when a web application including it is
>        initialized by the container.
>     -->
>     <listener>
>        <listener-class>org.jboss.weld.environment.servlet.Listener</listener-class>
>     </listener>
> </taglib>
> Btw, we are already including other automatic configurations, such as a JSF phase listener and view handler (META-INF/faces-config.xml).
> If we require ordering, that leans more to web-fragment.xml as a solution, since it's possible to have ordering control. There is no guarantee as to when a listener will load that's defined in a TLD (the advantage is only for non-Servlet 3.0 containers). Given that Weld is a new programming model and likely to be used with newer containers, then I'd say we should go with web-fragment.xml.
> (Worse case scenario is we introduce a classifier for weld-servlet that will be for pre-Servlet 3.0 environments. Something like org.jboss.weld.servlet:weld-servlet:1.1:pre-servlet-3)
