Problem with startup data

[cremersstijn]

I have an method that is called after the initialization of seam:

@Observer("org.jboss.seam.postInitialization")
public void loadBasicData(){
     dropdowntypesService.retrieveDropdowntypes();
     fieldhelptextService.retrieveFie
}

These methods loads some data in Map that are stored in on the Application Context in the following way:

@Name("fieldhelptextService")
@Stateless
public class FieldhelptextService implements IFieldhelptextService{

     @In
     private EntityManager entityManager;
     
     @Out(scope=ScopeType.APPLICATION)
     private Map<String, String> fieldhelptextMap = new HashMap<String, String>();
     
     public String getEjbql() {
          return "select fieldhelptexts from Fieldhelptexts fieldhelptexts";
     }
     
     
     @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
     public void  retrieveFieldhelptext(){
          fieldhelptextMap.clear();
          Collection<Fieldhelptexts> result = entityManager.createQuery(getEjbql()).getResultList();
          for( Fieldhelptexts i : result){
               fieldhelptextMap.put(i.getFieldname(), i.getHelptext()); 
          }

     }
     
}

But after accessing these methods the first time, all these Maps are empty.

These methods loads some data in Map that are stored in on the Application Context in the following way:

I can't see that this is an application scoped bean...

your bean is stateless - this won't work

what you probably want is to use a statefull bean in application scope

@Stateful
@Scope(ScopeType.APPLICATION)
@Synchronized
public class FieldhelptextService ...

but when i call the method loadBasicData() from my application (with a button and an action). It works well!

I don't want to set al my bean statefull and in the application scope, because that not good for my memory resources.
