Hi, I'm currently looking at JBAS-5968: "wolfc" wrote : The current implementation relies on the start of Ejb3Deployment to fill in the appropriate meta data, but there is no explicit dependency defined anywhere on the Ejb3Deployment object. So the WebServiceDeployerEJB can run before the Ejb3Deployment is started hence a NPE (https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBAS-5968). I might be missing something, but isn't the WebServiceDeployerEJB declaring the dependency on the Ejb3Deployment? | public WebServiceDeployerEJB() | { | addInput(MergedJBossMetaDataDeployer.EJB_MERGED_ATTACHMENT_NAME); | | addInput(EjbDeployment.class); | | addInput(Ejb3Deployment.class); | | // Input for the TomcatDeployer | addOutput(JBossWebMetaData.class); | | addOutput(WebServiceDeployment.class); | | } | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4178614#...
