[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (CDI-129) introduce @EnterpriseScoped (or similar)

[Mark Struberg (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-129?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12602319#comment-12602319 ] 

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

Regarding the @ApplicationScoped would behave different if standalone or in an EAR:

Imagine 2 WebApps, both using an @ApplicationScoped ConfigurationBean.
If the 2 webapps would get the same instance, then they would each other override their settings. This is really highly dangerous!

> 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.
