Hi Gurkan

Thx for your answer

As for the "dedicated professional support" offer, we will use IBM as we will use OWB that is included in WebSphere v8.5 and we pay for WAS v8.5 support.

As an example of a question related to the OWB doc, there is a 
openwebbeans.properties file that contains many parameters
What are the choices for those parameters. The comments in this file are not 
that explicit

Also how to configure OWB to run in a plain J2SE application vs inside 
WebSphere for example

Somewhere in the code or on the site I've read that you cam activate some "OWB 
Extensions". What are they? how to use/configure them?

The web site as a lot of tabs with "Plugins" with almost no information on them (JMS, JSF-2, EJB, EE Resources...). How/when to use them? Does OWB defined non standards annotation/beans? if so where are them listed and explained?
WebSphere documentation does not give much more details on how to use / 
configure OWB also..

Someone else suggest that we should use Seam 3 and/or CODI and/or DeltaSpike. Of course we will use one of them. and IMHO the only valid choice for the near future is DeltaSpike but the project does not yet have the JSF extensions that we need now, so it seems we will start with CODI but...

Plain CODI in WAS v8.5 does not even start (I still have to investigate this, there is an obscure exception on startup, in some custom CODI phase listener...)
And the CODI documentation is just a little better than the OWB one (just a 
joke...)

The future of Seam 3 is DeltaSpike and for us even if all of our apps (a dozen) are developped in Seam 2 (BTW I am a Seam 2 commiter, mostly on Seam2/WAS compatibility things + the whole chapter in the doc related to configure Seam 2 in WAS 7) we will not build on Seam 3 first, then switch to DS. Seam 3 lacks the "Workspace" notion of Seam 2 that is almost covered by the Window/CODI Conversation concepts of CODI and will be included in JSF 2.2 (aka webflow)

Yes sorry but there is no updated documentation. You can use here to ask your specific questions If you need dedicated professional support on OWB, ping me.

Thanks.

    Hello,

    We are about to migrate our development stack from JSF1.2/Seam 2/WebSphere 
v7.0  to JSF 2.0/CDI/WebSphere v8.5 that includes
    OWB...

    After after looking for documentation, we found almost nothing usable on 
the web site
    (http://openwebbeans.apache.org/owb/index.html) !

    The OWB official site seems very outdated (Last Published: 14 Dec 2011  | 
Version: 1.1.4-SNAPSHOT)

    More specifically:
    - how to tweak/configure OWB ? what properties and their meaning can we 
use? For the core (listed in a config file) but also
    for the modules
    - after looking to the source code, it seems that there are some extensions 
(Jms ..) What are they? how to use them?

    Thx.
