i have the same pb : Circular dependance with EJBs -------------------------------------------------- Key: EJBTHREE-1406 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/EJBTHREE-1406 Project: EJB 3.0 Issue Type: Sub-task Affects Versions: AS 4.2.2.GA Environment: windows XP Reporter: Nouredine Goutal Assignee: Carlo de Wolf I have asked the last time the problem of circular dependencies between EJB, there is someone who responded me and telling me to use the annotation @IgnoreDependency to one of the instance of Ejb injection. it solves the problem by half: I explain: when I use default injecting dependance with @EJB without specifying the name attribute, Jboss solve reference, in this case @ IgnoreDependency works well. By when I specifie the name of reference( @EJB(name="ejb/someEJB"...) that does not work. example: Hello1Bean classe : @EJBs( { @EJB(name="ejb/Hello2", beanInterface=Hello2.class, beanName="Hello2Bean") }) public @Stateless class Hello1Bean implements Hello1 { @IgnoreDependency @EJB(name="ejb/Hello2") private Hello2 hello; and Hello2Bean Classe : @EJBs( {@EJB(name="ejb/Hello1", beanInterface=Hello1.class,beanName="Hello1Bean") }) public @Stateless class Hello2LocalBean implements Hello2Local { @IgnoreDependency @EJB(name="ejb/Hello1") private Hello1 hello; with this case , i Have this probleme : --- MBeans waiting for other MBeans --- ObjectName: jboss.j2ee:jar=cyclic.jar,name=Hello2Bean,service=EJB3 State: NOTYETINSTALLED I Depend On: jboss.j2ee:jar=cyclic.jar,name=Hello1Bean,service=EJB3 Depends On Me: jboss.j2ee:jar=cyclic.jar,name=Hello1Bean,service=EJB3 ObjectName: jboss.j2ee:jar=cyclic.jar,name=Hello1Bean,service=EJB3 State: NOTYETINSTALLED I Depend On: jboss.j2ee:jar=cyclic.jar,name=Hello2Bean,service=EJB3 Depends On Me: jboss.j2ee:jar=cyclic.jar,name=Hello2Bean,service=EJB3 if someone has a solution, I currently work on the migration of a real application, and I have a major problem for progress. Thank's a lot.
