To answer a few questions: Meecrowave will likely remain an OWB subproject as it is pretty tightly bound to OWB. As Thomas already explained: if you stick to the CDI spec then both should give you the same features. And yes, OWB still performs 2..3x better than Weld and is also much smaller. Used to be 50..200x compared to former Weld versions.
If you want to use a Server which is portable between Weld and OWB then you might enjoy looking at John Aments Hammock project. Different goals, different pros and cons coming with it of course. Do we plan to incorporate MP parts out of the box? Hmm not sure myself to be honest as all this can easily added by just adding a dependency. And that way you are totally flexible regarding versioning. We might change is in the future probably, but for now it doesn't look that way. Note that I'm saying this despite I'm one of the Microprofile spec authors and I really like MP. But it's really so easy to add that it doesn't put any burden to the user but adds flexibility to _not_ have it by default. Otoh add a few samples an also add some ITs in the future might be a good idea! Oh and thanks for your question! Just ping us if you have any question comint to your mind. txs and LieGrue, strub > Am 01.10.2017 um 22:22 schrieb Thomas Andraschko > <[email protected]>: > > Some additions about Weld <> OWB: > Please also note that there are almost no reasons that application code must > depend on Weld or OWB.
