[weld-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (WELD-814) Resources injected to producer fields fail to be produced

[Pete Muir (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WELD-814?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12572608#comment-12572608 ] 

Pete Muir commented on WELD-814:
--------------------------------

The key difference between the two approaches above is that in resource producer field you are, in essence, "aliasing" that resource as a CDI bean with a specified qualifier and type. CDI is responsible for managing the lifecycle, and the only lifecycle that generally makes sense is dependent scoped. In the case of a resource injection + producer method, you are injecting a resource and taking control of it's lifecycle yourself via the producer method that exposes it.

IOW in the second case you are taking responsibility for the lifecycle of the resource instance and thus can choose whatever scope you want.

> When you inject a resource in to a bean (session, managed, cdi, etc), the producer field that can be bound to it fails to deploy, at least under AS 6.
