why an entity bean can fail to be put in the context?

[dp]

I set a user bean in one stateful bean and then navigate to a different page and in the init method for the page I can see that the entity bean is initialized by seam again and my data is lost, but this is just an assumption:

so I have

@Stateful

@Name("someBean")

@Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION)

@MeasureCalls

public class someBeanimplements someBeanLocal, Serializable {

    @In(required = false)

    @Out(required = false)

    private Thing thing;

public String quickOpenidLogin() {

            userService = (UserServiceLocal) Component.getInstance("userService");

           this.thing = userService.getThisThing();

        return RESULT_SUCCESS;

    }

}

then I go to the next page

<page view-id="/successPage.xhtml" no-conversation-view-id="/home.xhtml"

          concurrent-request-timeout="60000"

          conversation-required="true"

          login-required="true">

  <action execute="#{secondBean.initializeSecond}" on-postback="false"/>

    </page>

when method initializeSecond is called in secondBean:

@Stateful

@Name("secondBean")

@Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION)

@MeasureCalls

public class SecondBean extends AbstractCommonSecurity implements SecondBeanLocal {

	@In(required=false)
	@Out(required=false)
	protected Thing thing;

public void initializeSecond() {

     user.getId() is empty

}

}

Any ideas or directions? I need to fix that badly

Hi,

I think this might be useful, try this

Contexts.getConversationContext().set("thing", thing);
Contexts.getConversationContext().get("thing");

and also you need to begin your conversation by

@begin(join=true)

or in page.xml

<begin-conversation join="true" />
