All,
David Blevins raised this issue
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-136 about CDI
overstepping the it's responsibilities and validating that every SFSB must be
passivation capable, not just those that belong to passivation capable scopes in CDI.
I would assume this check was introduced because of a misinterpretation of the EJB spec
that *all* SFSBs are passivation capable, not just some. Speaking to David, he has
indicated this is certainly not the case. In this case, I think CDI is being somewhat
presumptious and should validate only the beans that it needs to (those that belong to
passivation capable scopes in CDI).
EJB does not offer up any metadata about whether a SFSB is passivation capable, so I think
this is the best we can do. Might be something for the EJB EG to consider - Marina, happy
to raise there if you want?
I will create a pull req for this issue shortly with the proposed fix, please comment on
the issue as ever if you do not agree with the fix, within the next two weeks.
Pete
