What is it?
============

Weld is the reference implementation of Java Contents and
Dependency Injection for the Java EE platform (CDI). CDI is the new Java
standard for dependency injection and contextual lifecycle management.

System requirements
===================

Weld examples require either a Java EE 6 application server or better,
a servlet container (using the Weld servlet extension) and Java SE
(using the Weld Java SE extension). In fact, through extensions, Weld
can accomodate any Java environment.
Weld is the reference implementation of CDI: Contexts and Dependency Injection
for the Java EE Platform which is the Java standard for dependency injection and
contextual lifecycle management and one of the most important and popular parts
of the Java EE platform.

Weld is integrated into many Java EE application servers such as WildFly,
JBoss Enterprise Application Platform, GlassFish, Oracle WebLogic and others.
Weld can also be used in a Servlet-only environment (Tomcat, Jetty) or plain
Java SE environment.

Currently, you must use JBoss AS 7 or above to deploy the provided examples
out of the box. Check http://weld.cdi-spec.org/download/ to find the
correct JBoss AS download for your Weld version. Marked examples, which do not
include EJB session beans, can also be deployed to Apache Tomcat 6 or Jetty 6.
Weld examples also work on GlassFish V3, build the artifacts using mvn install
and deploy.

JDK 6.0 or better is required for all Weld releases.
See http://weld.cdi-spec.org for more details.
