Spring Boot with Apache CXF and CDI

Viewed 6276

When using Apache's CXF JAX-RS Spring Boot starter with the CXF CDI dependency (cxf-integration-cdi), Spring fails trying to do the autowiring because it only supports JSR 330 and not CDI. Is there a way to get CDI to work with Spring Boot?

Code:

package com.ibm.test.webservices;

import javax.enterprise.inject.Any;
import javax.enterprise.inject.Default;
import javax.enterprise.inject.Instance;
import javax.inject.Inject;
import javax.inject.Named;
import javax.ws.rs.ApplicationPath;
import javax.ws.rs.GET;
import javax.ws.rs.Path;
import javax.ws.rs.Produces;
import javax.ws.rs.core.Application;

import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;

@SpringBootApplication
@ApplicationPath("/")
@Path("/")
public class TestWebServices extends Application {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SpringApplication.run(
            TestWebServices.class,
            "--cxf.path=/",
            "--cxf.jaxrs.classes-scan=true",
            "--cxf.jaxrs.classes-scan-packages=" +
                TestWebServices.class.getPackage().getName()
        );
    }

    @Inject
    @Any
    private Instance<InvokerInterface> impl;

    @GET
    @Produces("text/plain")
    @Path("/")
    public String helloWorld() {
        return impl.get().invoke();
    }

    public interface InvokerInterface {
        String invoke();
    }

    @Named
    @Default
    public static class Implementation1 implements InvokerInterface {
        public String invoke() {
            return "Hello World 1\n";
        }
    }

    @Named
    public static class Implementation2 implements InvokerInterface {
        public String invoke() {
            return "Hello World 2\n";
        }
    }
}
