Pete Muir commented on CDI-129:
-------------------------------
Coming in on discussions from the weekend.
1) Initial intent. I'm 100% sure that Gavin intended @ApplicationScoped to be shared
across the EAR originally, and that the comment about "standard scopes defined by
Servlet spec" was the mistake. However, as I've been proved wrong here before,
I've double checked it with him. Hopefully I can get an answer soon!
2) Whilst you may see most people using CDI standalone, what we are actually specifying
here is how CDI works in Java EE 7 and above, and this what we must focus on. We must take
account, of course, these other users, but they are lower than other considerations like
how CDI works in Java EE 7 and above, backwards compatibility with Java EE 6 application
servers.
Clarify behaviour of @ApplicationScoped in EARs
-----------------------------------------------
Key: CDI-129
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-129
Project: CDI Specification Issues
Issue Type: Clarification
Components: Contexts
Affects Versions: 1.0
Reporter: Mark Struberg
Assignee: Pete Muir
Fix For: 1.1 (Proposed)
Since @ApplicationScoped currently is defined in 6.5.2 as to be 'like in the Servlet
specification' this means that you will get a new instance for every WebApplication
(WAR file).
There is currently no specified CDI scope for providing a single shared instance for a
whole EAR.
We could (ab-)use @Singleton for that, but this is currently not well defined at all.
Alternatively we could introduce an own new annotation like @EnterpriseScoped or likes.
