Regarding this issue: - http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4063062#... I'm thinking of adding name-method attribute to bean and beanfactory. e.g. | <bean name="MyName" class="org.jboss.test.XBean" name-method="applyName" /> | | public class XBean | { | ... | | public void applyName(String name) | { | ... | } | I'll apply the name in Configured state (ConfigureAction).
