Eager EJB Injection

 
i am transforming a Java EE application from Weblogic 12.2.1.3 to Wildfly 18.1 (need to stick to Java 1.8) and i am facing a problem with "Eager" EJB injection.

For example, in the deployment of war named MyWar that contains a ViewScopedBean:

  @ViewScoped
 public class BatchCCBean implements Serializable {

@EJB(lookup = "java:global/consumer.batch.common/BatchJobService!com.company.api.batch.RemoteBatchJobService")
  RemoteBatchJobService batchJobService;

}

In Weblogic, if consumer.batch.common is NOT deployed during MyWar deployment, everything goes OK, deployment succeeds. If and only IF you try to initialize the BatchCCBean then you get an Exception. In other words it uses lazy EJB initialization.

BUT in Wildfly, I cannot deploy the MyWar application without deploying consumer.batch.common first because Weld in Wildfly 18.1 tries to eagerly initialize all Remote EJB injections during deployment time.

This is not a wanted behavior. Is it possible to disable "Eager Remote EJB Injection" in Wildfly's Weld?

Thanks
