The type ManagedBean is deprecated [duplicate]

Question

I just created a new maven project and Added a index controller. Then I used managedbean annotation. But I get this message The type ManagedBean is deprecated. So I tried for alternatives but I could not find any solutions. All the articles uses @ManageBean. So I think am missing something here.

My pom.xml file

</project>  

and IndexController

package asf.asdflksdfklj.Controller;

import javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean;


@ManagedBean
public class IndexController {

    public String showHello(){
        return "hello world";
    }

}

Is it really ManagedBean deprecated? If so what should I use to make this code work?

Answer 1

Managed beans are being deprecated and replaced with CDI beans. You will eventually have to upgrade to CDI, so might as well start now.

Instead of @ManagedBean, if you use @Named and put cdi-api-1.2.jar in your dependency, you should be good to go:

import javax.inject.Named;
import javax.enterprise.context.SessionScoped;

@Named
@SessionScoped
public class IndexController implements Serializable {

}
