Injection (CDI)
Contexts and Dependency Injection (CDI) is a new addition to the Java EE
specification. CDI can be used to simplify integrating the different layers of a Java
EE application. For example, CDI allows us to use a session bean as a managed bean,
allowing us to take advantage of EJB features such as transactions directly in our
managed beans.
In this chapter we will cover the following topics:
• Introduction to CDI
• Qualiiers
• Stereotypes
• Interceptor Binding Types
