• CDI Concepts

Overview

Must be placed in WEB-INF/ directory of WAR archives.

beans.xml is required to trigger the processing of the CDI annotations - even if its content is empty:

<beans xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" 
       xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
       xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee 
                          http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/beans_1_0.xsd">

</beans>
