WELD with Jersey webapp fails to deploy on weblogic 12c if beans.xml is packaged in jar file

If webapp is structured in below structure, it fails to deploy in weblogic 12c

MainApp

Error from weblogic logs is :
<org.jboss.weld.environment.deployment.discovery.DefaultBeanArchiveScanner> <BEA-000000> <Unable to adapt URL: zip:/################################/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.projects/WeldTest/beadep/eclispe_common/WeldTest/WEB-INF/lib/KMWeldDependecy.jar!/META-INF/beans.xml, using its external form instead>

1. Possible reason is DefaultBeanArchiveScanner doesn't support the beans.xml url with zip prefix. Even though it can be parsed same as jar prefix.
