[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-601?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.sy... ] Martin Kouba commented on CDI-601: ---------------------------------- To sum it up, right now if we have an {{@ApplicationScoped}} bean and want to perform some cleanup before it's destroyed: * use {{@PreDestroy}} callback - this can only be used to perfom "local" cleanup as we should NOT call other {{@ApplicationScoped}} beans from within the callback (the ordering of destruction is not defined) * observe {{(a)Destroyed(ApplicationScoped.class)}} which should be fired _"when the application is destroyed"_; but this could be tricky - see also CDI-625 I believe we should either clarify that {{(a)Destroyed(X.class)}} is fired before the context is destroyed (CDI-625) or introduce a new regular event {{ApplicationStopped}} when an application is stopped, before the container destroys all contexts. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
