OpenWebBeansEjbPlugin Class Hierarchy
-------------------------------------

                 Key: OWB-429
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OWB-429
             Project: OpenWebBeans
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java EE Integration
            Reporter: Jacquelle Leggett
            Assignee: Gurkan Erdogdu


Currently, the class hierarchy for OpenWebBeansEjbPlugin is:

OpenWebBeansEjbPlugin -> OpenWebBeansJavaEEPlugin -> OpenWebBeansWebPlugin -> 
OpenWebBeansPlugin 

This forces an OWB EJB plugin to be a web plugin and an EE plugin.  This can be 
problematic for processes that provide an EJB and web container.  Currently, if 
the EJB plugin is defined first in 
org.apache.webbeans.spi.plugins.OpenWebBeansPlugin, then it will always be 
selected as the web plugin.  To work around this problem, a web plugin has to 
be defined before the EJB plugin.  

I also think OpenWebBeansJavaEEPlugin should be removed from 
OpenWebBeansEjbPlugin's class hierarchy for similar reasons.  A provider should 
be able to specify the plugin that will serve as the EE plugin and not be 
forced to use OpenWebBeansEjbPlugin as the EE plugin.  

I think the resulting plugin class hierarchy should become:

OpenWebBeansEjbPlugin ->  OpenWebBeansPlugin 

OpenWebBeansWebPlugin -> OpenWebBeansPlugin 

OpenWebBeansJavaEEPlugin  -> OpenWebBeansPlugin
