JSF 2

.0 Scope Annotations

JSF 2.0 introduced new annotations as well as a new scope - the View Scope. CODI allows to use all the CDI mechanisms in beans annotated with:

• javax.faces.bean.ApplicationScoped
• javax.faces.bean.SessionScoped
• javax.faces.bean.RequestScoped
• javax.faces.bean.ViewScoped

Furthermore, the managed-bean annotation ( javax.faces.bean.ManagedBean) is mapped to @Named from CDI.

All these annotations are mapped automatically. So you won't face issues, if you import a JSF 2 annotation instead of the corresponding CDI annotation.

Flash Scope

CODI provides a fine grained conversation scope with multiple parallel and isolated/independent conversations within a single window as well as a view-access scope (see above). So we (currently) don't think that we need a flash scope. Please contact us, if you find an use-case which needs the flash scope and you can't use the other CODI scopes. Other portable extensions (like Seam 3 btw. Seam-Faces) just provide this scope because they don't have such fine grained conversations.
