CDI how to startup bean?

[viniciuscarvalho.viniciusccarvalho.gmail.com]

Hi there! I'm using weld 1.1.1.AS7 from jboss 7.

I have a simple bean:

@ApplicationScoped
@Startup
public class CamelLifeCycleFix {

     Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(CamelLifeCycleFix.class);
     
     @Inject CDICamelContext context;
     
     @PostConstruct
     public void afterCreate(){
          logger.debug("Look mom, I exist!");
     }
     
     public void shutdown(@Observes BeforeShutdown event){
          try {
               context.stop();
          } catch (Exception e) {
               // TODO: handle exception
          }
     }

I was expecting this bean to be created on startup. but, the aftercreate does not get called on the bean deployment. Also it does not get called when a shutdown happens.

The bad part is that if I force it on my Extension:

beanManager.getReference(b, CamelLifeCycleFix.class, beanManager.createCreationalContext(b));

It then works, I mean the post construct gets called.

Does CDI support @Startup? Also, if this is an ApplicationScopped bean, shouldn't it be created on startup anyway?

Have no idea why the shutdown never gets called.

Someone have an idea out there, running out of options here :(

@Startup is supported for @Singleton EJBs. Your bean should be annotated @ApplicationScoped @Singleton @Startup.

Thanks, that worked. Still having problems with @Observes BeforeShutdown. I know it's supposed to work only on Extensions, but Weld 1.1.1.AS7 throws an exception, before calling the method, I believe it's related to the WELD-891 bug. Trying to overcome it with a @PreDestroy on my bean that would shutdown my camelcontext.
