Abstract
CDI: The new new()
Okay so new() hasn't actually gone anywhere, but I did get your attention right? With Contexts and Dependency Injection (CDI) you can still use new() but why would you want to? And what's so great about CDI, besides the DI? All patterned out and tired of FooFactory and BarObserver? Put the PowerPoint down and see answers to these questions and many more developed live using actual Java code. 
 
Come join us as we dig deep into the Java Enterprise version 6 and dependency injection. Please pass the word and bring a friend.
 Check out this great tutorial for insights into JEE6 and CDI:http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/tutorial/doc/giwhb.html
