CDI has a number of scope annotations. Every managed bean either explicitly or implicitly defines the scope, and the scope specifies the life cycle of all the instances of the beans. For example, we have an EJB session bean of an application with a stateless scope, as shown in the following code:
@Statelessclass App { @Inject private lateinit var identityCreator: IdentityCreator @Inject private lateinit var identityRepository: IdentityRepository fun createIdentity(inputData: InputData): Identity { val person = identityCreator.createPerson(inputData) identityRepository.store(person) return person }}
Stateless beans are pooled by the application server. We have several instances of the bean, which is the concern of the application server. ...
