some time ago, i described how to run openwebbeans on glassfish3 and wls12.
in my previous post i described how to run openwebbeans on wildfly8 (and as7).
with the latest commit for ds-owb-bundle and the trunk of owb add-on,
the demo-application also works on glassfish4.

openwebbeans on wildfly8
recently i showed how to run owb on as7. the same owb add-on works with wildfly8 as well. however, wildfly8 ships a version of weld which implements cdi 1.1. therefore, i had to update the repackaged version of deltaspike. with the latest commit for ds-owb-bundle, the demo-application also works on wildfly8.

openwebbeans on as7
some time ago, i described how to run openwebbeans on a weld based ee6 server.
i mentioned that the used classpath-scanner doesn't support the virtual-file-system.
however, today i rewrote the scanner-service.
now it uses the "Corn Classpath Scanner" lib, which supports the vfs.
therefore, i tested the result with as7 (v7.2.0) and owb works fine as expected.
you can have a look at the result at the as7-branch of the same repository.

apache deltaspike pmc chair
now it's official - i'm the new pmc chair of deltaspike for this year.
i'll try to continue the great work of the previous chair!
furthermore, i would like to thank mark for being such a great chair!
in my first blog-post as new pmc chair i would like to mention:
everybody is welcome to join our awesome community!

[add-on] fast event processing with disruptor + deltaspike
cdi offers synchronous events. they are more like a decoupled method call. that's fine for a lot of use-cases.
in some cases the processing can take some time (in the observer method). a common trick is to use an ejb + @Asynchronous for the observer-method. with that the event-source can continue and the observer operates in a new thread.
however, that isn't enough if there is a huge amount of such events. for use-cases like that i've prototyped an add-on for apache deltaspike which allows to use disruptor for firing and observing events. it includes a simple qualifier support, however, it doesn't provide an 1:1 implementation of the cdi event rules. it can be used the same way as cdi events:
and
the add-on creates a disruptor-processor for every observer methods. the method gets invoked on the cdi-bean itself. the cdictrl-module provided by deltaspike is used for starting the cdi request- and session-scope before an observer method gets called (and to stop it afterwards). with that the application-, session- and request-scope (as well as all scopes based on them which start autom.) can be used for such beans.
since the observer methods are invoked on the contextual-instance, cdi features like dependency-injection can be used as expected. the result is really nice. there is a huge difference in view of the pure event-processing performance of the events:
the result might look strange at the first view. however, the effects are quite clear. since the observer-logic in the demo is fast, the benefit of using @Asynchronous is lost. here the pure invocation of observers in ejbs is slower (than observers in a cdi-bean), because the container has to handle additional ejb features like transactions. the cdi bean as well as the stateful ejb is application-scoped and therefore only one (cached) instance is needed.
in the charts above it's hard to see, but the numbers show that tomee is faster in case of the deltaspike/disruptor add-on (due to the highly optimized proxies of openwebbeans 1.2.x) and as7 is a bit faster with dispatching standard cdi events.
currently the add-on works with tomee and as7 (tested with v7.2) and is available here. the repository also contains several tests, which illustrate the supported use-cases.

[add-on] mock cdi-beans with deltaspike
i've prototyped an add-on for apache deltaspike which allows to mock cdi-beans manually or with a mocking-framework.
an example for a simple cdi-bean:
an example for a simple manual-mock for the cdi-bean: an example for a simple mockito-mock for the cdi-bean: the same is possible in combination with qualifiers as well as with producers and @Typed beans.
the add-on is available here. the repository also contains several tests, which illustrate the supported use-cases. the tests use manual-mocks as well as mockito-mocks. however, you can provide any object as mock which is a subclass of the original implementation.
