@In and @Out in CONVERSATION scope

[braddm7]

Hello, guys.

I believe that my question is silly but it is the correct place to ask:

I have the following code:
...
@In(required=false,scope=CONVERSATION) @Out(required=true,scope=CONVERSATION)
private List someBeans;
...
@Factory("someBeans")
public void someBeansDoInit(){
...
}
...
The Facelet has this code:
<h:commandButton value="OK" actionListener="#{theAction.doSomething}">
<f:param name="conversationId" value="#{conversation.id}" />
</h:commandButton>

The issue is that the value of 'someBeans' is lost. In debug mode in Eclipse I see that someBeans=null, which makes me think that somehow the conversation is lost. Or not ? Thank you for your help in advance.

Sorry, I am lacking information on the backing bean.

@Stateful
@Name("someName")
@Scope(SESSION)
public class xxxAction implements xxxIntf {
...
@Out(scope=SESSION)
private String someOtherInSessionScope;
...
}

You need to give some idea over the period which it is lost. Are you in a long running conversation.

[braddm7]

Yes, I am. There is a @Begin method executed. When in debug mode, the empty @Remove @Destroy method is called by Seam after the execution of the actionListener method. I am not sure that it is normal.

No, that shouldn't happen.

Does the debug page show your long running conversation?

[braddm7]

Yes, it does. The conversations are there, but nothing from the application's model is bound to it.
