== Why is this an issue?

A Spring ``++singleton++`` bean may be used by many threads at once, and the use of instance (non-``++static++``) variables could cause concurrency issues. 


This rule applies to classes with the following annotations: ``++@Service++``, ``++@Component++``, ``++@Repository++``, ``++@Scope("singleton")++``


=== Noncompliant code example

[source,java]
----
@Service("animalService")
public class AnimalService {
private int age = 1;              // Noncompliant
private static int count = 0; // Compliant; static

@Inject
private AnimalDAO animalDAO;  // Compliant; managed by Spring
...
}

Shall we simply "Close Won't Fix" this RSPEC or delete it?

Should the missing elements be added to RSPEC-3749 or just dropped? Either way, I'm fine to Won't-Fix this.
