             Summary: Portlet classes in PortletHubDemo are not annotated with 
@ApplicationScoped
                 Key: PLUTO-702
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PLUTO-702
             Project: Pluto
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: demo portlets
    Affects Versions: 3.0.0
            Reporter: Neil Griffin
            Assignee: Neil Griffin
             Fix For: 3.0.1


Section 20.1 of the Portlet 3.0 Specification states:
{quote}
When the portlet container uses the CDI container to instantiate the portlets, 
it must respect
any scope annotations on the portlet beans. Generally, portlets should be 
@ApplicationScoped  in order to avoid unnecessary object creation and 
destruction.
It should be noted that regardless of the bean scope, the Portlet interface 
init(PortletConfig) method will only be called a single time when the portlet 
is taken into service. If the portlet bean scope is other than 
@ApplicationScoped or @Dependent, this can potentially lead to unintended 
effects. Portlets that do not directly or indirectly implement the Portlet 
interface can use the CDI @PostConstruct and @PreDestroy annotations to 
properly handle bean initialization and tear down. A PortletConfig object can 
be injected as necessary.{quote}

Since all of the portlet classes annotated with {{@PortletConfiguration}} in 
the PortletHubDemo extends {{GenericPortlet}}, they indirectly implement the 
{{Portlet}} interface. This means that the "unintended effects" can happen in 
various portlet containers.

Because of this, it is necessary to annotated each of these classes with the 
{{@ApplicationScoped}} annotation.
