Support for EJB 3.x session beansh4. Annotation based supporth5. @Stateless, @Stateful, @Singleton : JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2 has support for annotation based session beans (i.e. @Stateless, @Stateful and @Singleton). A bean annotated with any of these session bean annotation will be picked up and processed appropriately.h5. Local annotated views:     * @Local and @LocalBean : JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2 supports local business interface view and the no-interface view of session beans.      * @Remote view: Currently, this annotation is processed and a business view is created out of it. But remote semantics do not yet work and a @Remote behaves the same as a @Local for now.     * @RemoteHome and @LocalHome view: Furthermore, there is *no* support yet for EJB2.x views (via @LocalHome and @RemoteHome)     h5. Tansaction management annotations:     * @TransactionManagement : JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2 supports both container managed transactions and bean managed transactions, configured through annotations.      * @TransactionAttribute : Various different transaction attributes (configured via @TransactionAttribute annotation) are also supported. Note that JBoss specific way of setting a transaction timeout through an annotation is *not* yet supported in this version.     h5. Concurrency management annotations:     * @ConcurrencnyManagement : Both bean and container managed concurrency support for @Singleton beans is available in JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2.     * @Lock : Both READ and WRITE lock support is also available in JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2      * @AccessTimeout : Support for configuring an access timeout through the @AccessTimeout annotation is also available in JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2.     h5. Init on Startup for singleton beans:     * @Startup : Init-on-startup support for singleton beans, through the use of @Startup is available in JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2     h5. Dependencies configuration for singleton beans:     * @DependsOn : Only a partial support is available for this annotation in JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2. The annotation is processed and appropriate dependencies are added between the singleton beans. This works fine against @Startup @Singleton beans. But for normal (lazy) @Singleton beans, the @DependsOn may not work as mandated by the spec. This will be fixed in later versions of JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2     h5. Resource injection and EJB injection:     * @Resource and @EJB : These annotations are supported in JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2. These can be used in container managed components to inject the resources and EJBs respectively.h4. ejb-jar.xml deployment descriptor based support* Support for session beans: JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2 allows you to configure your session beans through the use of ejb-jar.xml. All types of session beans (Stateless, Stateful and Singleton) are supported.* Transaction Management support: You can configure transaction management semantic through the use of ejb-jar.xml for your session beans. Both bean managed transactions and container managed transactions are supported.* Support for business views: Currently only business-local and local-bean views are supported through ejb-jar.xml for session beans. business-remote element is processed and a view is created out of it, but remote semantics aren't yet supported. Instead it works as a business-local for now.      * Support for interceptors: JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2 has support for interceptors of EJBs configured via ejb-jar.xml. However, explicit interceptor-ordering isn't yet supported.h4. Merged view of annotations and ejb-jar.xml for EJBsAlthough there is an initial implementation available in JBoss AS 7.0.0.Beta2 for supporting partial deployment descriptor + partial annotation based EJBs, it's still in its early stages and isn't stable. Upcoming releases will have better support for a merged view of EJBs.h3.
