What I can see as well after putting a method with the @PostConstruct
annotation, is that this method is called every request, as if the
conversation didn't exist before, which is not true.

I am outputting the orchestra logs in the console, and I can see:

The bean is called "publicationController", which should be maintained in a
conversation called "general". And I see this every request. This is the
bean class annotations:

@Controller
@Scope( "conversation.access" )
@ConversationName( "general" )
public class PublicationController extends AnnotatedObjectController {
...}

I fail to see why the bean is not re-used as the conversation is not ended.

And then, if I let the conversation expire, I see the message as many times
as instances have been created (three requests in my case to the same
page...).

2010-07-01 14:39:28,563 [Orchestra:ConversationWiperThread] DEBUG
(Conversation,311) - destroy conversation:general
2010-07-01 14:39:28,565 [Orchestra:ConversationWiperThread] DEBUG

2010-07-01 14:39:28,566 [Orchestra:ConversationWiperThread] DEBUG
(Conversation,311) - destroy conversation:general

So I am not sure what is happening here :(
