EjbUtilities is used without regard for dependencies ---------------------------------------------------- Key: AS7-6862 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-6862 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Bug Components: EJB Affects Versions: EAP 6.1.0.Alpha (7.2.0.Final) Reporter: Stuart Douglas Assignee: jaikiran pai Fix For: 8.0.0.Alpha1 org.jboss.as.ejb3.component.EJBUtilities is used to get services in the EJB subsystem, without setting up proper dependencies (e.g. in org.jboss.as.ejb3.component.EJBComponentCreateService#getEJBUtilities). Occasionally this can cause problems at startup as EJBUtilities can end up being null for some EJB's. We should probably just remove this class, or at the very least make sure it is injected properly and not looked up.
