My local instance interFaces (in my java war web-app) is not being injected from a "cdi-able (thejarwithbeansxml.jar)" (beans.xml) jar referenced from my jboss-deployment-structure.xml (referencing the module).
Please see below configuration;
theapp.ear
--- META-INF --> jboss-deployment-structure.xml
--- bunch of ejb's
--- bunch of wars
--- webapp.war (please see module configuration)
the jboss-deployment-structure.xml body in (theapp.ear->META-INF)

webapp.war (deployed as part of the ear)
Has a Rest web service class where the injection occurs as follows;
//expecting to have subclasses ofIActionBaseinjected from module com.mymoduletest1.
@Inject
@Any
private Instance<IActionBase> interFaces;
After reading the Wildfly documentation again and again, I seemed to be following all the rules and that this type of functionality is supported by Wildfly. Example;
When I create a sub-class of IActionBase that resides inside the webapp.war, there is no issues. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Additional Test Code
The code below (within the webapp.war);
java.io.InputStream schemaIS = Class.forName("com.fluidattica.test.TestCrazy").getClassLoader().getResourceAsStream("META-INF/beans.xml");
int readVal = -1;
while((readVal = schemaIS.read()) > -1)
{
System.out.print((char)readVal);
}
Yielded the following result (which indicates the beans.xml is visible and loaded);
