[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-31) Asynchronous events

Tue Apr 24 03:51:18 EDT 2012

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-31?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12686972#comment-12686972 ] 

Martin Kouba commented on CDI-31:
---------------------------------

AFAIK EJB asynchronous methods do not propagate transaction context (see 4.5.3 Transactions in spec). Frankly speaking I can not imagine how this (any context propagation) could work and what benefits it would bring.

As CDI 1.1 will surely have context lifecycle support there is a place for portable extensions to implement non-EJB async events (e.g. deltaspike module).

So I don't think it's necessary to define asychronous events in the spec. Nevertheless I do vote for independent execution with no context propagation.
