From 7.2 of the CDI spec:

Hi all! Recently I have noticed that OWB does not apply (class/method) interceptors to lifecycle event callback methods. I 've chatted with Mark and he referred me to the list. He tried to remember his research on this topic and made the point that class interceptors should probably be applied. However he has the feeling that pure method interceptors may not be applied for lifecycle event callback methods since those methods are no business methods. It seems that neither the CDI spec nor the interceptor spec covers the topic for all variations. After reading the interceptor spec again (chapter "Interceptors for LifeCycle Event Callbacks") I would follow Marks assertions. What do you think? Is there anything missing within the CDI spec (and OWB of course)?

If you want this clarified, please open a CDI issue + provide a patch/pull req for suggested changes (as I see it, it's quite clear so I wouldn't know how to improve it ;-). but in EJB 3 lifecycle callbacks like e.g. @PostConstruct are defined. IMO CDI should also propagate this callbacks to the application. > > On 30 May 2011, at 23:21, Jens Schumann wrote: > >> Hi all! >> >> Recently I have noticed that OWB does not apply (class/method) >> interceptors to lifecycle event callback methods.
