Class Extensions

java.lang.Object

org.apache.openejb.Extensions

public final class Extensions
extends Object

The Extensions API mimics the equivalent CDI Extension/@Observes API

Via the Extensions/@Obverves API it is possible to listen for any number of internal events fired by OpenEJB/TomEE during the life of the server and deployment of applications.

Extensions are any java class that have one or more @Observes methods using the following format:

- public void (@Observes event)

Extensions can be registered in any number of ways:

1. Via a META-INF/org.apache.openejb.extension text file containing the name of exactly one 2. Via a tag in the server's openejb.xml or tomee.xml configuration file 3. Via a tag in a META-INF/resources.xml in the application 4. Directly calling SystemInstance#addObserver(Object)
