[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-3273) @Startup + @Create on session-scoped bean broken in Seam 2.1

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-3273?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12427028#action_12427028 ] 

Shane Bryzak commented on JBSEAM-3273:
--------------------------------------

I don't understand how this could have worked.  Session-scoped @Startup components are created within the scope of the servlet container invoking SeamListener.sessionCreated(), and there is certainly no FacesContext or HttpServletRequest objects available within this call.  Furthermore, these classes haven't been modified in over a year so I don't see how their behaviour could have changed just in the last few months.

> In 1.x, 2.x and Seam 2.1 build from ~march 2008 it was possible to access, for example, cookies info or other http request attributes at session creation time. It was extremely useful to fetch f.e. user-specific data from database to create custom view etc, (described f.e. here http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3963032). It is not working anymore. Both FacesContext.getCurrentInstance() and ServletContexts.getInstance().getRequest() now return null within @Create method.
