EJB3.1 spec 4.8.4: destroying singleton because of error during initialization is not honored
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBAS-9391
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-9391

          Issue Type: Bug

ejb 3.1 spec [4.8.4 Singleton Error Handling] says that "Errors occurring during Singleton initialization are considered fatal and must result in the discarding of the Singleton instance."
I tried to raise a system exception in the @PostConstruct method of a singleton bean. Logs show the deployment error. But I then can access and call the singleton methods.


-- Full paragraph 4.8.4: -----------------------------
Errors occurring during Singleton initialization are considered fatal and must result in the discarding of the Singleton instance. Possible initialization errors include injection failure, a system exception thrown from a PostConstruct method, or the failure of a PostConstruct method container-managed transaction to successfully commit. If a singleton fails to initialize, attempted invocations on the Singleton result in an exception as defined by Section 3.4.3 and Section 3.4.4.
------------------------------------------------------

I tested to raise a system exception (throw new RuntimeException()) in the @PostConstruct method.

-- Logs show the error -------------------------------

DEPLOYMENTS IN ERROR:
  Deployment "startup-singleton-initiator:topLevelUnit=ts.ear,unit=testSingletonEjb.jar,bean=counter" is in error due to the following reason(s): testsingleton.exn.SE

------------------------------------------------------

However, it is after that possible to access the singleton through a JNDI lookup and successfully call its methods.
