Injecting a bean from a different Jar in Weld

Question

I have two Jars A and B where A depends on B.

Jar B has a single class:

@ApplicationScoped
public class MyManagedBean {

 private String user;

 public MyManagedBean(){
  //Constructor necesary for CDI
 }

 @Inject
 public MyManagedBean(@Named("user") String user){
  this.user = user;
 }

 ...
}

Jar A (more precisely, an EJB jar) has a bean:

@ApplicationScoped
public class AnotherManagedBean {

 public AnotherManagedBean(){
  //Constructor necesary for CDI
 }

 @Inject
 public AnotherManagedBean(MyManagedBean bean){
  ...
 }
}

And a configuration bean with a @Produces method:

@ApplicationScoped
public class ConfigurationBean {

 public ConfigurationBean(){
  //Constructor necesary for CDI
 }

 @Produces
 @Named("user")
 public String getUser(){
  return "myUser";
 }
}

However, when I deploy an EAR with both Jars I'm getting this exception:

SEVERE: Exception while loading the app : WELD-001408 Unsatisfied dependencies for type [String] with qualifiers [@Named] at injection point [[parameter 1] of [constructor] @Inject public com.example.MyManagedBean(String)]

Any idea?

I believe this is correct answer to your problem https://mcmap.net/q/660046/-cdi-using-interceptors-across-different-modules-bean-archives – Occur

i have the exact same problem let me know if you find a solution. – Siliculose

Answer 1

Make sure both jars are "bean archives" - i.e. they have META-INF/beans.xml

Nedneda

Yes, both jars have META-INF/beans.xml – Brachylogy

Answer 2

I was having this exact same problem and I was able to get it figured out but I use an ear to combine the jars.

Ear Layout

project.ear
|-- META-INF 
|      |-- MANIFEST.MF
|      |-- application.xml*
|-- one.jar (bean archive)
|      |-- META-INF
|      |      |-- beans.xml
|      |-- <code>
|-- two.jar (ejb)

• application.xml

<application>
  <display-name>test-application</display-name>
  <module>
    <ejb>two.jar</ejb>
  </module>
  <module>
    <java>one.jar</java>
  </module>
</application>

Doing that it made one.jar available to two.jar in the container.

Answer 3

One thing, you have to create Qulifier annotation for specify exactly which should be injected.

@Qualifier
@Retention(RUNTIME)
@Target({METHOD, FIELD, PARAMETER, TYPE})
public @interface UserConfiguration { }

and then..

 @Produces
 @UserConfiguration
 @Named("user")
 public String getUser(){
  return "myUser";
 }

for injection..

@Inject
public MyManagedBean(@UserConfiguration String user){
    this.user = user;
}

see also http://docs.jboss.org/weld/reference/1.1.0.Final/en-US/html_single/#d0e1355

Without a Qualifier annotation, it should have the @Default qualifier... Isn't it? – Brachylogy
