Weld SE now requires bean.xml file?

aanderson Mar 4, 2012 1:37 PM

I am updating an application from Weld 1.1.0 to 1.1.5 and after the update I now receive a ""Missing beans.xml file in META-INF!"" exception. I am curious as to why beans.xml is now required in Weld SE because I do not want CDI auto scanning enabled and I want to only explicitly declare managed beans through my CDI extensions. Prevously not including a beans.xml file would disable auto scanning and I believe this behavior is compliant with the CDI spec.

Yes, beans.xml is now mandatory in SE. Take a look at https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WELD-914

As a solution for my problem I just put a wildcard exclude in the beans.xml for everything. I still believe my use case of completely disabling scanning in a SE environment is a valid.
