java SE and transaction manager

[tchize]

Hello,

i am currently evaluating CDI+openEJB+JPA on a standalone application as an alternative to Spring+Hibernate+config files.

We currently have a problem concerning Transaction. Upon startup, Weld mention that he couldn't find a Transaction manager


WELD-000101 Transactional services not available. Injection of @ Inject UserTransaction not available.

We can provide transaction manager JOTM ou the openEJB one to weld, but how does weld find the transaction manager, and how do i say to weld to use a specific TxManager ?

Looking at source code, it seems WELD SE hardcode the list of available services and there is no way / no doc to easily provide your own JTA implementation or EJB implementation, except by recoding the whole bootstrap yourself
