Mark, 
There is text in section 2.2.3 for this.  I agree 
that it's good to have a description in section 8.10 as well.  (Section 
numbers taken from the new WD03.)

          [sca-j] NEW ISSUE: Missing 
            description of what the @EagerInit annotation 
      does.

      
        
        

          
          

RAISER: Mark Combellack
 
TARGET: SCA Java Common 
Annotations and APIs 
 
DESCRIPTION: 
Working Draft 01 – line 1080 
Working Draft 03 – line 1208 
  
There is no 
description of what the @EagerInit annotation does. All the other annotations 
have some description but it is missing for @EagerInit. 
  
I raised this as an editorial issue in [1] but after editorial 
discussion, it was decided to raise an issue for it as it is more than just an 
editorial issue. 
  

PROPOSAL: 

Update the specification to 
add the following text at after line 1208 of the @EagerInit section in Working 
Draft 03 
  
The @EagerInit annotation is 
used to annotate a Java class method on a Composite scoped implementation for 
eager initialization. When marked for eager initialization, the composite scoped 
instance is created when its containing component is started. 
The annotated method MUST have a void return value and no 
arguments. The annotated method MUST be public. The annotated method is called 
after all property and reference injection is complete.
