Weld 3.0.2.Final

2017-11-23   release   Matej Novotny

Weld 3.0.2.Final is out and targetting WildFly 11! Ever wished you could select events and instances in a truly generic way using just java.lang.reflect.Type? Looking for easier way to configure SE container? We have a bunch of bugfixes and improvements for you, so read on…​

Notable fixes and improvements:

  • Weld Core

    • Improved subclass generation mechanism for generic interceptors (WELD-2414)

    • Fixed OSGi bundling, we missed out one package on last release (WELD-2421)

    • Improved behaviour with no-interface EJB view with non-public methods (WELD-2430)

    • Corrected proxy creation for signed classes (WELD-2425)

  • Weld SE

    • There are now multiple convenient error-proof methods to quickly configure SE container (WELD-2426)

      • Weld.enableDevMode(), Weld.scanClasspathEntries(), …​

  • Weld API/SPI

    • WeldInstance has several improvements

      • It now allows you to select() beans based on java.lang.reflect.Type (WELD-2427)

      • WeldInstance.Handler had become lazy which means you can now iterate/filter/sort WeldInstance without actually instantiating beans (WELD-2258)

    • There is new interface in the API - WeldEvent - which can be used in place of well known Event but allows you narrow down event type by using select() with java.lang.reflect.Type (WELD-2427)

    • API now contains a String key used to obtain interceptors binding from InvocationContext (WELD-2436)

  • Other

    • Probe now correctly recognizes beans which have @Priority but aren’t alternatives (WELD-2432)

    • Multiple documentation improvements regarding all things, old and new (WELD-2440, WELD-2431, WELD-2434)
