In section 8.5 of the spec, it states:<BR>
<BR>
<BLOCKQUOTE>
An observer method must be a method of a simple bean implementation class or session bean implementation class. An<BR>
observer method may be either static or non-static. If the bean is a session bean, the observer method must be a business<BR>
method of the EJB or a static method of the bean class.<BR>
</BLOCKQUOTE>
<BR>
In the case of the latter, what is the behavior of the container if a session bean violates that statement? Perhaps DefinitionException? Usually the spec is explicit about the exception thrown.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks,<BR>
