Additional built-in beans do not have a scope defined ----------------------------------------------------- Key: CDI-554 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-554 Project: CDI Specification Issues Issue Type: Clarification Affects Versions: 1.2.Final, 2.0-EDR1 Reporter: Martin Kouba See section 17.8. Additional built-in beans - a scope is not defined for UserTransaction, Principal, HttpServletRequest, etc. Maybe it's defined somewhere else but I cannot find anything. In Weld, Java EE beans are {{@Dependent}}, HttpServletRequest and ServletContext are {{@RequestScoped}} and HttpSession is {{@SessionScoped}}.
