Port of the core and some of the modules to Jakarta namespace (Jakarta EE 10.0)
Apache DeltaSpike is a suite of portable CDI Extensions intended to make application development easier when working with CDI and Jakarta EE.
Note that Apache DeltaSpike is not a CDI container itself, but a set of portable Extensions for it!
Some of the key features of Apache DeltaSpike include:
- A core module that supports component configuration, type safe messaging and internationalization, and exception handling.
- A suite of utilities to make programmatic bean lookup easier.
- A plugin for Java SE to bootstrap both JBoss Weld, Apache OpenWebBeans and other CDI containers outside of a JavaEE server.
- JSF integration, including backporting of JSF 2.2 features for Java EE 6.
- JPA integration and transaction support.
- A Data module, to create an easy to use repository pattern on top of JPA.
- Scheduler integration
Testing support is also provided, to allow you to do low level unit testing of your CDI enabled projects.
