Class BeanManagerLocator

java.lang.Object
  org.ocpsoft.rewrite.cdi.manager.BeanManagerLocator

public class BeanManagerLocator
extends Object

A utility for use in non-managed classes, which are not able to obtain a reference to the BeanManager using injection.

BeanManagerProvider is an SPI that may be implemented to allow third parties to register custom methods of looking up the BeanManager in an external context. This class will consult implementations according to precedence.

**WARNING** This class is NOT a clever way to get the BeanManager, and should be avoided at all costs. If you need a handle to the BeanManager you should probably register an Extension instead of using this class; have you tried using @Inject?

If you think you need to use this class, chat to the community and make sure you aren't missing a trick!
