[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-5235?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.... ] Dirk Weil commented on WFLY-5235: --------------------------------- I finally found some time to dig into the problem a little bit more: If the observer method is private, interceptors are not called. With non-private methods, interceptors are working as expected. This behaviour has changed from WildFly 8.2.0 to 9.0.1. I didn't check WildFly 10. I tried to find out from the specification, if interceptors should be called when invoking private methods, but found no unmistakable statement. If someone could clarify that, I would be very thankful. I can imagine, that the methods intercepted must be non-private. But if that is the case, an appropriate exception should be thrown, if they are private. The problem can be reproduced with this demo: https://github.com/dirkweil/wildfly-cdiscopeinit-demo. If you build the application (just run mvn) and deploy the resulting war file onto WildFly 8, no exception arises. If using WildFly 9 a TransactionRequiredException is thrown in the observer method de.gedoplan.beantrial.wildflycdiscopeinit.service.InitTestDataService.createTestData. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.11#64026)
