javax.enterprise.context.spi

Interface CreationalContext<T>

public interface CreationalContext<T>

The CreationalContext holds incomplete Bean instances and references to allDependent scoped contextual instances injected into a NormalScoped bean.

E.g. consider we create a Contextual Instance of a SessionScoped UserInformation bean which has a dependent injection point (e.g. a field private @Inject Helper helper; ) In that case the CreationalContext of the UserInformation instance will contain the information about the helper instance. This is needed to properly destroy the helper once the UserInformation gets destroyed. In our example this will happen at the end of the Session.

Attention: If you create a Dependent instance manually using BeanManager.getReference(javax.enterprise.inject.spi.Bean, java.lang.reflect.Type, CreationalContext) then you must store away the CreationalContext. You will need it for properly destroying the created instance via Contextual.destroy(Object, CreationalContext). This is not needed for NormalScoped beans as they maintain their lifecycle themself!
