[cdi-dev] [JBoss JIRA] (CDI-21) Support PostConstruct callbacks in Extension class

[Martin Kouba (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/CDI-21?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13106197#comment-13106197 ] 

Martin Kouba commented on CDI-21:
---------------------------------

+1 for BeforeBeanDiscovery. Only a CDI container is allowed to fire container lifecycle events (see also 10.2.1. The Event interface) and so it is safe to assume the event will only be delivered once.

> It is sometimes useful to get to know after a portable extension class has been instantiated, so that the state of the Extension could be initialized [ie not establishing state in the constructor and having it called twice when the Extension is proxied]. Though the 1.0 specification does not require this, it would be useful to support @PostConstruct callback on Extension class in the next version of the specification.
