The above injects businessDelegate into manageMyBean. It also creates a new
instance if it is needed.
Actually, you're working too hard. Just use:
<value>#{businessDelegate}</value>
JSF IoC container is not that powerful, I prefer to use Spring and then use
the Spring delegating variable resolver.
You could also write your own JSF variable resolver and then manage the
businessDelegate w/o putting it into scope.
You can accomplish that with standard managed beans my setting the <managed-bean-scope> on the "businessDelegate" bean to be "none". This is like the create-every-time mode of Spring ... you always get a new instance each time the _expression_ is evaluated, and it is never placed into any scope.
