[cdi-dev] how to proecess the CDI @Singleton and EJB @Singleton?

[Mark Struberg]

Hi!

@javax.inject.Singleton is completely underspecified in JSR-330 and thus deliberately left out in the CDI spec at all.


If I get back to Wards original Singleton definition "Singleton means to create exactly one single instance (of a certain kind) in a well specified context" then the @Singleton is exactly worth nothing. Because it doesn't say anything about in _which_ context it should behave like a singleton!

Is it 1 instance per Java VM? 1 instance per EAR? 1 instance per WAR? 
The EJB singleton is at least clear that it's 1 per EAR.

LieGrue,
strub
