This example show the use of `@RequestScoped` annotation for injected objects. An object
which is defined as `@RequestScoped` is created once for every request and is shared by all the
beans that inject it throughout a same request.

== Example

This example depicts a similar scenario to cdi-application-scope. A restaurant guest orders
a soup from the waiter. The order is passed to the chef who prepares it and passes it back
the waiter who in turn delivers it to the guest.

=== Waiter

The `Waiter` session bean receives a request from the test class via the `orderSoup()` method.
A `Soup` insance will be created in this method and will be shared throughout the request with
the `Chef` bean. The method passes the request to the `Chef` bean. It then returns the name of
the soup to the test class.

....
@Stateless
public class Waiter {

    @Inject
    private Soup soup;

    @EJB
    private Chef chef;

    public String orderSoup(String name){
        soup.setName(name);
        return chef.prepareSoup().getName();
    }
}
....

=== Soup

The `Soup` class is an injectable POJO, defined as `@RequestScoped`. This means that an instance
will be created only once for every request and will be shared by all the beans injecting it.

....
@RequestScoped
public class Soup {

    private String name = "Soup of the day";

    @PostConstruct
    public void afterCreate() {
        System.out.println("Soup created");
    }

    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    public void setName(String name){
        this.name = name;
    }
}
....

=== Chef

The `Chef` class is a simple session bean with an injected `Soup` field. Normally, the soup
parameter would be passed as a `prepareSoup()` argument, but for the need of this example
it's passed by the request context.

....
@Stateless
public class Chef {

    @Inject
    private Soup soup;

    public Soup prepareSoup() {
        return soup;
    }
}
....

== Test Case

This is the entry class for this example.

....
public class RestaurantTest {

    private static String TOMATO_SOUP = "Tomato Soup";
    private EJBContainer container;

    @EJB
    private Waiter joe;

    @Before
    public void startContainer() throws Exception {
        container = EJBContainer.createEJBContainer();
        container.getContext().bind("inject", this);
    }

    @Test
    public void orderSoup(){
        String soup = joe.orderSoup(TOMATO_SOUP);
        assertEquals(TOMATO_SOUP, soup);
        soup = joe.orderSoup(POTATO_SOUP);
        assertEquals(POTATO_SOUP, soup);
    }

    @After
    public void closeContainer() throws Exception {
        container.close();
    }
}
....

== Running

In the output you can see that there were two `Soup` instances created - one for
each request.
