How to configure embedded Jetty with weld module

I am embedding a Jetty 9.2 server in my JSF web app. It is supposed to be very easy to enable Weld in Jetty 9.1+ by enabling the Weld module, but I see no way to do that with the embedded server. Are there any examples of how to do this, and which classes are affected?

These are my listeners in web.xml:

<listener>
  <listener-class>org.jboss.weld.environment.servlet.BeanManagerResourceBindingListener</listener-class>
</listener>
<listener>
  <listener-class>org.jboss.weld.environment.servlet.Listener</listener-class>
</listener>

This is how I'm starting my server:

    Server theServer = new Server();
    ServerConnector connector = new ServerConnector(theServer);
    connector.setHost(getHost());
    connector.setPort(getPort());
    connector.setIdleTimeout(getTimeout());
    theServer.addConnector(connector);
    WebAppContext webApp = new WebAppContext();
    webApp.setContextPath("/");
    File f = new File(getFileName());
    webApp.setWar(f.getAbsolutePath());
    webApp.setServer(theServer);
    theServer.setHandler(webApp);
    theServer.start();
    theServer.join()
Solution

  • I got some help from Jesse McConnell at WebTide.

    I needed to add the following file to my classpath: https://github.com/eclipse/jetty.project/blob/master/jetty-cdi/src/main/config/modules/cdi.mod

    I also needed to add the jetty-cdi jar to my pom.
