JSF application with Activiti using Tomcat

[user1507]

Hello,

English is not my native language; please excuse typing errors.

I created this topic in continuation to this - http://forums.activiti.org/content/need-training-materials-not-activiti-action

Here where I work we don´t use Maven and use Tomcat and Spring. We pretend to use Activiti in a JSF Portlet inside Liferay.

So the first step was to remove Maven and make it work correctly, that is ok. The second now is to make it work with Tomcat instead Jboss.

I was reading a similar tutorial - http://www.bpm-guide.de/2011/09/17/build-your-own-activiti-task-explorer-with-cdi-and-jsf-2/
, and some persons were also interested in using Tomcat instead of Jboss. The author suggests: "you need to add and configure cdi (e.g. Weld or Open Web Beans) yourself and potentially also additional libraries."

Instead of Weld or Open Web Beans I want to use Spring for CDI. Did anyone try this or something similar?

Thanks for you attention.

I was reading in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3055724/can-spring-understand-inject-replacing-weld-as-a-jsr-299-... , that with JSR 330 - https://code.google.com/p/atinject/  It may be possible.
Anyone tried this?

It's possible to replace @inject by @autowired
but spring 3 supports @inject and @named
