System and method for managing reference-counted lifecycles of contexts and dependency injection (CDI) components

Abstract:

Described herein are systems and methods for managing reference counted lifecycles of contexts and dependency injection (CDI) components. The systems and methods described herein provide new constructs that allow for managing and monitoring CDI object lifecycles. Put together, these constructs permit specifications (e.g., JPA) to be fully implemented in a lightweight CDI ecosystem without reliance on typical application servers.
