JBoss Weld CDI for Java Platform

Enabling a decorator

As with interceptors, all decorators are disabled by default, so we need to enable our decorator within the beans.xml file of a bean archive:

<beans
  xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="
    http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
    http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/beans_1_0.xsd">
  <decorators>
        <class>org.cdibook.chapter6.PasswordMonitorDecorator</class>
  </decorators>
</beans>

Note

Activation of a decorator within beans.xml will activate it for all beans within the same archive only.
