    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-129?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12602316#comment-12602316 ] 

Mark Struberg commented on CDI-129:
-----------------------------------

There are tons of other @ApplicationScoped annotations out there (Spring, JSF, Shale,..) + other EE specs (JAX-RS, JAX-WS) and ALL of them refere to the WebApplication! This is also absolutely clear from the CDI spec imo. And since we cannot change this behaviour without becoming completely backward incompatible, we should rather introduce a new @EarScoped

> Since @ApplicationScoped currently is defined in 6.5.2 as to be 'like in the Servlet specification' this means that you will get a new instance for every WebApplication (WAR file).
> There is currently no specified CDI scope for providing a single shared instance for a whole EAR.
> We could (ab-)use @Singleton for that, but this is currently not well defined at all.
> Alternatively we could introduce an own new annotation like @EnterpriseScoped or likes.
