@PostConstruct not working with @Named and @javax.faces.view.ViewScoped for CDI on Wildfly Beta1

[esmin]

I have a simple bean that backs JSF 2.2 page.

When using @ViewScope  (javax.faces.view.ViewScoped) with @Named - new CDI beans for jsf, neither @PostConstruct, nor class constructor is invoked.

Same bean on Glassfish 4, works as expected.

When I replace CDI annotations with @ManagedBean and related @ViewScoped, also this works as expected.

Looked through JIRA, but found no mention on this issue?

I'm using Beta1 version downloaded from Downloads · WildFly

Hi,

are you using the built-in JSF version? When starting up, you should get the following:

10:21:31,286 INFO  [javax.enterprise.resource.webcontainer.jsf.config] (MSC service thread 1-4) Mojarra 2.2.3-jbossorg-1 20130910-1739 f³r Kontext '/sp' wird initialisiert.

Also, we are using the annotation (below) for our view scoped backing beans, it works in WF8 Beta1

import javax.enterprise.inject.Stereotype;

import javax.faces.view.ViewScoped;

import javax.inject.Named;

import java.lang.annotation.ElementType;

import java.lang.annotation.Retention;

import java.lang.annotation.RetentionPolicy;

import java.lang.annotation.Target;

@Named

@ViewScoped

@Stereotype

@Retention (RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)

@Target (ElementType.TYPE)

public @interface Presenter

{

  // Stereotype interface for Presenter Beans

}

did you add the beans.xml to your WEB-INF or META-INF directory?
