JBoss AS 7 : problem using the CDI class

[rikgig]

Hi all

I have a small J2EE application that uses Jaxb, jax-rs, jax-ws and CDI.

When deployed on Glassfish or latest WebLogic, everything works ok.

I've been fighting with a JBoss AS 7 deployment for 2 days. Now the REST ans WS system works and so does the dependency injection. But for one specific service that uses a factory to create sub-services, my call to CDI.current().select(MySubService.class).get(); fails with this error:

org.jboss.resteasy.spi.UnhandledException: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/enterprise/inject/spi/CDI

Then I tried something else I read from the JBoss forum:

BeanManager manager = CDI.current().getBeanManager();

Now this line generates the same error.

I'm using a JBoss AS 7.1.1, and I've update Resteasy on my JBoss installation to the latest version (3.0.17).

My jboss-deployment-structure.xml looks like:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.0">

    <deployment>

        <dependencies>

            <module name="org.jboss.resteasy.resteasy-yaml-provider" services="import"/>

        </dependencies>

    </deployment>

</jboss-deployment-structure>

An empty web.xml and beans.xml are also supplied.

Anyway idea anyone? I'm out of options.

Thank you!

Eric.
