What is the alternative to the WeldContainer.instance-method?

[christoph.tornau]

Within a Java SE application I am trying the following:

Weld weld = new Weld();
WeldContainer container = weld.initialize();
Test t = container.instance().select(Test.class).get();

However the method instance() of container is deprecated and the documentation says: "Applications are encouraged to use methods for programmatic lookup directly." (see: https://github.com/weld/core/blob/master/environments/se/core/src/main/java/org/jboss/weld/environment/se/WeldContainer.java )

So how is it possible to avoid the deprecated warning. It's not possible for me to work with an @Inject annotation because this class isn't loaded by Weld initially because it's a Java SE application. I googled around and didn't find an answer to this. All examples are using the deprecated instance()-method.

Thank you in advance.

Hi Christoph,

WeldContainer now implements Instance, so you can just invoke the lookup methods upon the WeldContainer instance:

Test t = container.select(Test.class).get();

Uups, thank you for your answer. It's so simple. I accidentally overlooked this. Thank you for helping me!
