[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-129) Clarify behaviour of @ApplicationScoped in EARs

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-129?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.sy... ] Mark Struberg commented on CDI-129: ----------------------------------- that is exactly the problem: BOTH ways are not fully covered in CDI1.0! See CDI-18 where the EG already agreed that BDA and 5.1 is moot and needs to get redefined. Also {quote} 2.4 Scopes: Java EE components such as servlets, EJBs and JavaBeans do not have a well-defined scope. ... singletons, such as EJB singleton beans, whose *state is shared between all clients*, ... Scoped objects, by contrast, exist in a well-defined lifecycle context: their state is automatically shared by clients that *execute in the same context*. {quote} Actually your interpretation of the spec would exactly fit the aforementioned EJB @Singleton. And in the same paragraph this is explicitly ruled out. Also please note that your interpretation would have the result that firing a CDI event from an @ApplicationScoped bean in a shared lib would NOT reach any bean defined in any WAR file! There is no way to do that with your interpretation. Again: all that ONLY happens if you need to deal with scopes > 1 per war. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
