[jboss-jira] [Red Hat JIRA] (WFLY-11999) WildFly creates too many instances of all web service classes

WildFly creates too many instances of all web service classes ------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-11999 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/WFLY-11999 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Components: Web Services Affects Versions: 8.0.0.Final, 16.0.0.Final, 19.0.0.Final Environment: Ubuntu 18.10 64bit, Open JDK 8 or Open JDK 11 Reporter: Stefan Frings Assignee: Parul Sharma Priority: Minor Fix For: 22.0.0.Beta1, 22.0.0.Final Attachments: Test-1.0-SNAPSHOT.war, Test.zip, standalone.xml 1) My @Webservice classes are all constructed multiple times (3x - 4x) but I expected only one instance. 2) Only the second instance receives a call to the observer method for initialization. I expect that this method is called in each instance. The issue can be reproduced with the attached minimum project on Wildfly 8 with JDK 8 as well as Wildfly 16 with JDK 11.
