Normally the default scope is the Request scope. I ve tried to delete the scope annotation and expected the bean to have a request bean scopped behaviour (by returning a submitted value on a previous page, I remember i've tried this the past and it worked fine) but i got nothing on the expression language wired to it. So what is the default scope and why it's not the same behaviour?!
The scope of the managed bean is declared using one of NoneScoped , RequestScoped , ViewScoped , SessionScoped , ApplicationScoped , or CustomScoped annotations. If the scope annotations are omitted, the bean must be handled as if the RequestScoped annotation is present.
The session scope allows you to create and bind objects to a session. It gets created upon the first HTTP request involving this bean in the session and gets destroyed when the HTTP session is invalidated. The request scope is present in JSF and CDI and functions in the same way.
Normally the default scope is the Request scope.
You can use following scopes for a bean class: Application (@ApplicationScoped): Application scope persists across all users? interactions with a web application. Session (@SessionScoped): Session scope persists across multiple HTTP requests in a web application.
Depends on who's managing the bean.
If it's JSF via @ManagedBean
, then it defaults to @RequestScoped
, as mentioned in the javadoc:
If the scope annotations are omitted, the bean must be handled as if the
RequestScoped
annotation is present
If it's CDI via @Named
, then it defaults to @Dependent
, as mentioned in Weld documentation:
Finally, CDI features the so-called dependent pseudo-scope. This is the default scope for a bean which does not explicitly declare a scope type.
The effect is that the bean instance is newly created on every single EL expression. So, imagine a login form with two input fields referring a bean property and a command button referring a bean action, thus with in total three EL expressions, then effectively three instances will be created. One with the username set, one with the password set and one on which the action is invoked. In effects, this behaves the same as JSF @NoneScoped
. This confirms the symptoms you're seeing.
If it's Spring via @Component
, then it defaults to @Scope("singleton")
, as mentioned in javadoc:
Default:
"singleton"
In effects, this behaves the same as JSF @ApplicationScoped
and CDI @ApplicationScoped
.
Netbeans has got nothing to do with it. It's just an editing tool like notepad but then with 1000+ extra features.
