    ****************************************************************
    A parent class has its annotated @PostConstruct method
    overridden by a subclass. When the target subclass annotated
    method is called, it gets invoke twice.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The WebContainer was modified to invoke the target subclass
    method once. Also, any parent's overridden methods are ignored.
    
    A new WebContainer customer property needs to be set to enable
    the behavior provided by this APAR:
    
    com.ibm.ws.webcontainer.ignorePostConstructOverriddenMethod =
    true (default is false)
    
    Please refer to the following technote for instructions on
    enabling WebContainer custom properties:

    The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
    fix packs 7.0.0.31, 8.0.0.8 and 8.5.5.2.
