This annotation is to tag an object as to be managed by the underlying IoC container with the following default life-cycle: for each ask for such a bean, a newly instance is created and that object is bound to the life-cycle of the client object. Therefore, any instance of the bean injected into an object that is being created by the container is bound to the lifecycle of the newly created object. This annotation can be both to annotate business or technical objects. The annotation is an abstraction above the IoC container used by Silverpeas so that it is can possible to change the IoC container (Spring or CDI for example) by changing the wrapped annotation to those specific at this IoC implementation without impacting the annotated IoC managed beans.
