You need to use JBossAppMetaData.class.getName() since that is the signature. Its the metaData instance that has to be an implementation of this. The ctor parameters also look incorrect that it should be metaData rather than deployment: | | | | ServiceConstructorMetaData serviceConstructor = new ServiceConstructorMetaData(); | | serviceConstructor.setSignature(new String[] { String.class.getName(), | | JBossAppMetaData.class.getName(),Boolean.class.getName()}); | | serviceConstructor.setParameters(new Object[] {contextId, metaData, Boolean.TRUE}); | | createJaccPolicyBean(serviceConstructor, unit); | | | That is the change I am doing now. Rather than the use of metaData.getClass().getName(), I am doing getMetaDataClassType() which is an overridden method in the sub-deployers (EarSecurityDeployer will pass JBossAppMetaData as the meta data class type).
