Is there a way to @Inject an Emitter without @Channel

[hknlof]

@Channel is annotated by @Qualifier, which in turn leads to the class, that uses @Channel to be registered as a bean.

Is there a way to inject or instantiate an Emitter without registering the using class as a bean? Constructor injection comes to my mind, but then the question how to provide the emitter with the correct stream name.

I don't think so. An emitter is a managed object. So it is expected to be injected into a bean.

You can try to use the CDI programmatic API but you will need @channel (but as a literal)

Thanks for clarification. Will then have to use a proxy class for producing my desired beans.
