Interface ManagedContext

All Superinterfaces:

AlterableContext, Context

All Known Subinterfaces:

BoundConversationContext, BoundRequestContext, BoundSessionContext, ConversationContext, EjbRequestContext, HttpConversationContext, HttpRequestContext, HttpSessionContext, RequestContext, SessionContext

public interface ManagedContext
extends AlterableContext

Lifecycle management for built in contexts. ManagedContext only allows a context to be activated, deactivated and destroyed. It does not allow the context to be associated with an underlying data store. These operations are defined on BoundContext.

Weld provides a number of managed contexts: SessionContext, ConversationContext, RequestContext. All these managed contexts are scoped to the thread, and propagation of the backing store between threads is the responsibility of the managed context user.
