Description

I followed this instruction http://docs.jboss.org/weld/reference/1.0.0/en-US/html/environments.html in order to add cdi support to tomcat.

The strut2 cdi plugin does not work because it searches the beanManager with those keys: "java:comp/BeanManager" and "java:app/BeanManager".

Weld docs says "Tomcat only allows to bind entries to java:comp/env, so the BeanManager is available at java:comp/env/BeanManager".

Adding the 3rd lookup in the plugin source code makes all works fine.
