Hi Gavin, I was just writing some tests and realized the spec in section 8.1 does not clearly state what happens if I use a context from one scope and a bean from a different scope. Should this be a runtime exception? Example: @Dependent public class MyBean {} ... Bean myBean = manager.resolveByType(MyBean.class).iterator().next(); MyBean myBeanInstance = manager.getContext(SessionScoped.class).get(myBean); ------------- David Allen david.allen(a)acm.org
