Glassfish

Glassfish comes bundled with JBoss Weld 1.1.8.Final as the default CDI implementation. As with JBoss AS7, we have the choice of using the version that is there already or upgrading to the latest version.

If we don't already have Glassfish installed, download the latest release from http://glassfish.java.net/public/downloadsindex.html#top and either run the installation program or extract the contents of the ZIP, depending on our operating system and which installation format we chose.
