questions about Seam Conversation Context

Question

Supposing that I'm using the @Begin annotation to start a long-term conversation, which of the following statement is correct:

1. if method returned normally, Seam destroys the current temporal conversation and create a new conversation which is long-term.
2. if method returned normally, Seam promotes the current temporal conversation to a long-term conversation.

According to "Practical JBoss Seam Projects", the first statement is right. But in Seam Reference-2.3.0, it says: "When an @Begin method is encountered, the temporary conversation context is promoted to a long running conversation."

I have no idea about it.

Answer 1

Second statement is correct: Seam promotes the temporary conversation to a long-term one.
