Event with qualifier @Initialized not raised if no webapp is deployed --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-3334 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-3334 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Components: CDI / Weld Affects Versions: 8.1.0.CR1 Environment: Wildfly 8.0.0.Final, OpenJDK 1.7.0_45 Reporter: Daniel Lechner Assignee: Jozef Hartinger Fix For: 10.0.0.Alpha5 As stated in the CDI-specification (section 6.7.3. Application context lifecycle) {quote} An event with qualifier @Initialized(ApplicationScoped.class) is fired when the application context is initialized and an event with qualifier @Destroyed(ApplicationScoped.class) is fired when the application is destroyed. {quote} But in my environment this is only true, if the deployed application (packaged in an EAR) contains a webapplication (as WAR inside the EAR). If there is no webapplication, the event is not raised and observer-methods are not called at all.
