Hi,
I'm using tapestry5.4 with java 8, in a JEE environment. Actually, I'm using
JBoss 7.1.eap Application Server (which is, more or less, the same of WildFly8).
I'm packaging my tapestry5 WAR inside an EAR, and I need to access some
stateless session beans declared in another JAR.
The current way I'm accessing the ejbeans is looking into the jndi tree in the
web appModule with a code similar to the following:
public static IMyEjbInterface buildMyEjbImplementation() {
// yes, I know that this works only under jboss :-)
return = MyTools.jndiLookup("java:myJar/"+
MyEjbImplementation.class.getSimpleName());
}
This way I can inject the stateless session bean into my pages using the
tapestry @Inject annotation.
I fell my solution is a little bit clumsy, so I was wandering if there was a
better way to do this.
I would be happy to learn the "tapestry5 recommended way" to reach this goal.
As first attempt, I thought that the simpler way is to inject the ejb directly
into the page using an @EJB annotation.
Looking into docs and googling around I found the following options:
1) tapestry wiki: https://wiki.apache.org/tapestry/JEE-Annotation. This is a
mix between flowlogix and tapestry jumpstart. This page has not been updated
from 2011, so I wonder if it is something more up to date...
2) flowlogix: https://github.com/flowlogix/flowlogix. The last commit is two
year old, but it seems to be stopped at tapestry 5.3
3) tapestry jump start: there is a working example, updated for tapestry 5.4,
but it's scope is limited only to the @EJB annotation.
4) tapestry-cdi. This looks the most promising, I could use also some other
annotation (I need @Singleton, for example), and I see that it is built inside
the tapestry code source tree, so it should be updated and compatible with last
version of the framework, but:
a) I could not find a maven/gradle already built jar (eg: no
org.apache.tapestry:tapstry-cdi:5.4.x)
b) I cannot find this module in the staging/org/apache/tapestry/ repositories
c) I could only find it by downloading sources or binaries of tapestry5
directly from tapestry5 web site.
So the question is: is tapestry-cdi the right way to go or it is "abandonware"?
Why tapestry-cdi it is not distributed with the others tapestry jars in
mavencentral, jcenter or others repositories?
What is the recommended way to inject an EJB inside a tapestry page?
Thank you,
larzeni
