OpenWebBeans and DeltaSpike
Deep Dive

Agenda
● CDI and its terms
● Why OpenWebBeans?
● Portable CDI Extensions
● CDI by example with DeltaSpike

CDI is a ...
● JCP specification started in ~2007
Contexts and Dependency Injection for
the Java EE platform (CDI) as JSR-299
● component model designed for Java EE
(can be used with Java SE)

CDI Features
● Type-safe Dependency Injection
● Interceptors
● Decorators
● Events
● SPI for implementing "Portable Extensions"
● Unified EL integration

What is Dependency Injection?
● "Inversion Of Control" object creation
● No more hardcoded dependencies when
working with Interfaces
MailService ms = new VerySpecialMailService();
● Basically the old Factory Pattern
● Hollywood Principle:
"Don't call us, we call you!"
● Macho Principle
"Dude, gimme that bloody stuff!"

Singletons and Contexts
● What is a 'Singleton'
● "exactly one single instance
in a well specified context"

Built-in CDI Scopes
● NormalScoped with well defined lifecycle:
– @ApplicationScoped
– @SessionScoped
– @RequestScoped
– @ConversationScoped
● 'Pseudo Scope':
– @Dependent

Terms - Managed Bean
● ... a Java Class and all it's rules to create
(contextual) instances of that bean.
● 'Managed Beans' in JSR-299 and JSR-346
doesn't mean JavaBeans!
● Interface

Bean<T> extends Contextual<T>

Terms - Contextual Instance
● ... a Java instance created with the rules of
the Managed Bean Bean<T>
● Contextual Instances usually don't get
injected directly!

Terms - Contextual Reference
● ... a proxy for a Contextual Instance.
● Proxies will automatically be created for
injecting @NormalScope beans and allow
decoupled scope handling

Bootstrapping & Runtime
● Creating the meta information at startup
– Bean meta-data can be changed
– Fail fast (e.g. AmbiguousResolutionException)
● Contextual Instance creation at runtime
– based on the Managed Beans
– the Context will maintain the instances
● Well defined contextual instance
termination

Why Apache OpenWebBeans?
● Fast
● Stable
● Modular Plugin Architecture
● Usable
(e.g. alternative approach for BDAs)

Portable CDI Extensions
● Apache MyFaces CODI
http://myfaces.apache.org/extensions/cdi
● JBoss Seam3
http://seamframework.org/Seam3
● Apache DeltaSpike
http://incubator.apache.org/deltaspike

DeltaSpike closes the gaps
between ...
● ... Java-EE and the needs of
real-world applications
● ... different CDI communities

CDI in Action with Apache DeltaSpike

DeltaSpike 0.3 - Overview
● Core
● JPA
● Security
● Container-Control

Interceptors and Producers in action

@Transactional - 1
● Transactional bean in the application

@Transactional
public class MyBean {
@Inject
private EntityManager em;
}

@Transactional - 2
● Producer and disposer in the application

@Produces
@TransactionScoped
protected EntityManager defaultEntityManager() {
return …;
}

protected void dispose(@Disposes EntityManager em) {
if (em.isOpen()) {
em.close();
}
}

@Transactional - 3
● Interceptor annotation in DeltaSpike

@InterceptorBinding
public @interface Transactional {
//...
}

@Transactional - 4
● Interceptor implementation in DeltaSpike

@Interceptor @Transactional
public class TransactionalInterceptor implements Serializable {

@Inject private TransactionStrategy ts;

@AroundInvoke
public Object executeInTransaction(
InvocationContext invocationContext)
throws Exception {
return ts.execute(invocationContext);
}
}
+ config in the beans.xml

@Transactional - 5
● Transactional bean in the application

@Transactional
public class MyBean {
@Inject
private @First EntityManager em1;

@Inject
private @Second EntityManager em2;
}

@Transactional - 6
● Producer implementations in the application

@Produces @RequestScoped @First
protected EntityManager firstEntityManager() {
//...
}

@Produces @RequestScoped @Second
protected EntityManager secondEntityManager() {
//...
}

@Transactional - 7
● Producers and disposers in the application

protected void disposeFirst(@Disposes @First
EntityManager em) {
if (em.isOpen()) {
em.close();
}
}
protected void disposeSecond(@Disposes @Second
EntityManager em) {
if (em.isOpen()) {
em.close();
}
}

@Transactional - 8
● Qualifier implementations in the application
@Qualifier
public @interface First {
}

@Qualifier
public @interface Second {
}

@BeforeJsfRequest - 1
● Observer in the application

public void onBeforeJsfRequest(
@Observes @BeforeJsfRequest
FacesContext facesContext) {
//…
}

@BeforeJsfRequest - 2
● Fired event in DeltaSpike

@Inject
@BeforeJsfRequest
private Event<FacesContext> beforeJsfRequestEvent;

this.beforeJsfRequestEvent.fire(facesContext);

@Specializes configs - 1
● Specialized type-safe config in the
application

@Specializes
public class CustomWindowContextConfig
extends WindowContextConfig {
public int getWindowContextTimeoutInMinutes() {
return 240;
}
}

@Specializes configs - 2
● Config implementation in CODI (/DS)

@ApplicationScoped
public class WindowContextConfig {
public int getWindowContextTimeoutInMinutes() {
return 60;
}
public int getMaxWindowContextCount() {
return 64;
}
//…
}

@Alternative - 1
● Alternative implementation in the
application

@Alternative
@Exclude(
exceptIfProjectStage = ProjectStage.Development.class)
public class MockedMailService
implements MailService {
}

+ config in beans.xml

@Alternative - 2
● Primary implementation in the application

public interface MailService {
}

@ApplicationScoped
public class DefaultMailService
implements MailService {
}

Apache DeltaSpike.Next
● Simple answer:
There is no fixed master plan!
The future depends on the community
-> get involved!
