Getting started

To get started with Weld after you have downloaded it, please follow Chapter 6 Getting started with Weld in the Reference Documentation.

Weld and JBoss Application Server

There are two options for running Weld in JBoss Application Server. The recommended option is to download the most recent JBoss Application Server 7.x, which includes Weld. For either option, there is no need to install any additional libraries, just deploy your application as you normally would, since JBoss AS includes Weld for you.

Weld and other containers

Weld also supports these containers:

Java version requirements

Java 5 or higher is required for all Weld releases.

Weld in Maven

Weld is available from the JBoss Maven Repository:

  • Group Id: javax.enterprise
  • Artifact Ids: cdi-api
  • Group Id: org.jboss.weld
  • Artifact Ids: weld-core, weld-api, weld-spi
Maven 3.0 is required

To use Weld, we recommend enabling the JBoss repository in your settings.xml by adding this profile: 

   <profile>
      <id>jboss-public-repository</id>
      <!-- Repository is active unless explicitly disabled e.g. -P!jboss-public-repository -->
      <activation>
         <property>
            <name>jboss-public-repository</name>
            <value>!false</value>
         </property>
      </activation>
      <repositories>
        <repository>
          <id>jboss-public-repository-group</id>
          <name>JBoss Public Maven Repository Group</name>
          <url>http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
          <layout>default</layout>
          <releases>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
            <updatePolicy>never</updatePolicy>
          </releases>
          <snapshots>
            <enabled>false</enabled>
            <updatePolicy>never</updatePolicy>
          </snapshots>
        </repository>
      </repositories>
      <pluginRepositories>
        <pluginRepository>
          <id>jboss-public-repository-group</id>
          <name>JBoss Public Maven Repository Group</name>
          <url>http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
          <layout>default</layout>
          <releases>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
            <updatePolicy>never</updatePolicy>
          </releases>
          <snapshots>
            <enabled>true</enabled>
            <updatePolicy>never</updatePolicy>
          </snapshots>
