It also creates a new instance if it is needed. Actually, you're working too hard.  Just use:     <value>#{businessDelegate}</value>   JSF IoC container is not that powerful, I prefer to use Spring and then use the Spring delegating variable resolver. You could also write your own JSF variable resolver and then manage the businessDelegate w/o putting it into scope. You can accomplish that with standard managed beans my setting the <managed-bean-scope> on the "businessDelegate" bean to be "none".  This is like the create-every-time mode of Spring ... you always get a new instance each time the _expression_ is evaluated, and it is never placed into any scope.
