[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Question about Conversations and Stateful Bean Instances

[ekusnitz]

I have the following question, which doesn't appear to be addressed in the documentation or the forums:

We have a stateful bean declared like this:


  | @Stateful
  | @Name("CRUDNode")
  | @Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION)
  | public class CRUDNodeAction extends CRUDAdminTypeAction implements Serializable, CRUDAdminType, CRUDNode {
  | ...
  | @Create
  |     public void create() {
  | 


The ancestor looks like this:

  | @Stateful
  | @Name("CRUDAdminType")
  | @Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION)
  | public class CRUDAdminTypeAction implements CRUDAdminType {
  | ...
  |   @Begin(nested=true)
  |     public String details() {
  | ...
  |  @End
  |     public String edit() {
  | ...
  |  @End
  |    public String cancel() {
  | ...
  | 
  | 

The details() method is called from a set of links representing different nodes (created dynamically via Javascript, so I can't reproduce it here). The first time you click the link, @Create gets called, then @Begin, which makes sense. However, on subsequent clicks  on different nodes (without calling any @End methods) @Create never gets called.

So, my question is: Shouldn't a new conversation (nested or not) create a new instance of my stateful bean, CRUDNodeAction, and therefore call @Create?
