<br>
The CDI-1.2 spec says in 6.7.3:<br>
<br>
„An event with qualifier @Initialized(ApplicationScoped.class) is fired when the application context is initialized and an event with qualifier @Destroyed(ApplicationScoped.class) is fired when the application is destroyed. "<br>
<br>
Now from the pure wording („IS initialized“, „IS destroyed“) I’d say that both events must be fired _after_ the state is reached. Means _after_ the context got initialized and _after_ the context got destroyed.<br>
<br>
Means an observer like<br>
<br>
@ApplicationScoped<br>
public class MyBean {<br>
public void endIt(@Observes @Destroyed(ApplicationScoped.class) endObject) {<br>
doSomething()<br>
}<br>
}<br>
<br>
will _never_ get invoked.<br>
Because the bean (and the whole context) will be already killed…<br>
<br>
You can observe this event in a @Singleton scoped bean, but not in an @ApplicationScoped bean.<br>
If you like to do _that_, then simply use a @PreDestroy.<br>
<br>
Do others share this interpretation? Do we need to clarify anything?<br>
