  • Fix resource injection into beans added via extensions (WELD-2798)

  • Prevent file leak in Weld’s ServiceLoader (WELD-2800)

    • Note that most environments were unaffected by this; the only reported issue was for testing setup of GlassFish on Windows machines

Weld 6.0.0.CR2

2024-11-28   release   Matej Novotny

Turns out we forgot to perform some code cleanup in the CR1 - so here goes 6.0.0.CR2 which removes deprecated code pieces. Note that Weld API is unchanged; the only deprecations there are changes coming in recent CDI versions so we’ve kept that code around for now.

Resolved issues in this version:

  • Revisit deprecated code in Weld Core (WELD-2804)

  • Remove WeldCrossContextFilter (WELD-2803)

As per usual, please report any issues you discover with this release so that we can squash those bugs.

Weld 6.0.0.CR1

2024-11-13   release   Matej Novotny

First version of the Jakarta EE TCKs has finally landed in Central and with that, we have re-enabled all remaining TCK tests and are confident enough to issue a candidate release for Weld 6!

Note that both, Weld API and Weld Core artifacts have been released.

Here is the list of changes from last Beta:

  • Implement validation for unproxyability of sealed types (WELD-2799)

  • Correct injection into @Resource fields of beans registered through extensions (WELD-2798)

  • Improve the algorithm that determines BeanManager instance for synthetic beans coming from build compatible extensions (WELD-2794)

  • Weld OSGi bundle now correctly exports org.jboss.weld.util.reflection (WELD-2793)

  • Weld OSGi bundle now contains imports for built-in bean proxies (WELD-2796)

  • Re-introduce Jakarta EE CDI TCK into continuous integration (WELD-2778)

    • The TCK artifact in Central is not yet final (it is M1) but it is enough to make sure Weld passes all related CDI tests with WildFly

  • Fix possible file leak in org.jboss.weld.util.ServiceLoader (WELD-2800)

    • This was only reported during GlassFish testing and affected just Windows machines

  • Resolve license conflict of jboss-logging-processor inside shaded Weld SE JAR (WELD-2795)

As per usual, please report any issues you discover with this release so that we can squash those bugs.

Weld 5.1.3.Final

2024-8-27   release   Matej Novotny

A new version of Weld 5.1 has landed in Maven Central.

This is a bug squashing round which backports several notable fixes and changes from Weld 6 into Weld 5:

  • Change BeanManager resolution process for BuildCompatibleExtension not belonging to any bean archive (WELD-2794)

  • LazySessionBeanStore no longer swallows exceptions happening when attempting to initiate HTTP session (WELD-2762)

  • Correct how we determine proxy package for beans with unassignable types in their bean type set (WELD-2763)

    • This was only problematic in environments using WeldDefaultProxyServices to define their proxies (such as Weld SE)

  • Correct CommonLogger to mention correct GAV for Jandex (WELD-2770)

  • Added the ability to register Build Compatible Extension in Weld SE without discovery (WELD-2772)

  • Correct inheritance of producer fields if there is an extension present (WELD-2773)

  • Make sure @Default qualifier is added to events fired via BeanManager#getEvent() where appropriate (WELD-2775)

  • Observer method confiurator now correctly allows to override Reception settings without changing its notify() method (WELD-2786)

  • Clean up legacy Jetty integration parts (WELD-2787)

  • Use Lock instead of synchronized within ContextualInstanceStrategy to be more virtual thread-friendly (WELD-2788)

  • Skip superclass declarations of final methods when creating proxies (WELD-2785)

  • Ensure OSGi bundle has access to all dependencies needed for built-in beans (WELD-2796)

Weld 6.0.0.Beta4

2024-7-3   release   Matej Novotny

New versions of Weld artifacts are now available in Central - Weld Core 6.0.0.Beta4 accompanied by Weld API 6.0.Beta5.

Where applicable, 6.0.0.Beta4 bumps up Jakarta dependencies to their Final variants as well as implements remaining features from CDI spec, adds new Weld-specific API and addresses multiple backlog issues that were scheduled for this major release.

You might be wondering where did Betas 2 and 3 go. While you can find their artifacts in Central, they bear no difference from Beta4 apart from not having separate distributable ZIP and docs. With that in mind, below is the list of changes since Weld 6.0.0.Beta1:

  • Added the ability to register Build Compatible Extension in Weld SE without discovery (WELD-2772)

  • Use Lock instead of synchronized within ContextualInstanceStrategy to be more virtual thread-friendly (WELD-2788)

  • Skip superclass declarations of final methods when creating proxies (WELD-2785)

  • Observer method confiurator now correctly allow to override Reception settings without changing its notify() method (WELD-2786)

  • Correct CommonLogger to mention correct GAV for Jandex (WELD-2770)

  • Invoker API enhancements (WELD-2780)

    • Proper exception handling

    • Document API Weld offer above what CDI specification has; Weld retains all parts of the initial design CDI had

    • Added benchmarks to have a measure of our implementation versus direct invocation

    • Code cleanup and other minor tweaks

  • Remove SecurityManager related code from Weld (WELD-2789)

    • SecurityManager has been deprecated for quite a upcoming JDK versions plan to remove it completely so we remove it as part of the major release version

    • This means Weld 6 no longer uses priviledged actions to perform various tasks, such as constructor invocations, reflection on classes etc.

  • Remove WARN logging when an interceptor binding target of lifecycle interceptors targets anything other than TYPE (WELD-2790)

  • Revise Weld 6 examples; only keep essentials (WELD-2771)

  • Address Weld API javadoc warning (WELD-2779)

  • Revisit servlet setup and testing (WELD-2784)

  • Clean up legacy Jetty integration parts (WELD-2787)

Note that the latest documentation incorrectly states that it is for SNAPSHOT which isn’t the case. It is built for Beta4 but due to incorrect script setup the version number wasn’t picked up properly. This will be corrected for the next release.

As always, if you find further issues with Weld 6, let us know and we’ll try to help.
