[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (AS7-960) @Resource declaration validation seems to be too strict

@Resource declaration validation seems to be too strict -------------------------------------------------------- Key: AS7-960 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-960 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Bug Environment: running against commit a004da8272d7717225bfa1bc65534bb4b599bc1b Reporter: Matt Drees Assignee: Stuart Douglas Fix For: 7.0.0.CR1 I have a third-party library in my app that has a (non-necessary) class in it that declares a @Resource that looks like this: {{@Resource ( name = "service-bean-interceptors" )}} This class is not referenced by any deployment descriptor in my project. However, AS7 fails to deploy my app with this message: {noformat} 11:54:04,894 ERROR [org.jboss.msc.service.fail] (MSC service thread 1-4) MSC00001: Failed to start service jboss.deployment.unit."ccp.war".POST_MODULE: org.jboss.msc.service.StartException in service jboss.deployment.unit."ccp.war".POST_MODULE: Failed to process phase POST_MODULE of deployment "ccp.war" at org.jboss.as.server.deployment.DeploymentUnitPhaseService.start(DeploymentUnitPhaseService.java:121) at org.jboss.msc.service.ServiceControllerImpl$StartTask.run(ServiceControllerImpl.java:1675) at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.runTask(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:886) [:1.6.0_24] at java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:908) [:1.6.0_24] at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:680) [:1.6.0_24] Caused by: org.jboss.as.server.deployment.DeploymentUnitProcessingException: Can't handle @Resource for ENC name: service-bean-interceptors since it's missing a "lookup" (or "mappedName") value and isn't of any known type at org.jboss.as.ee.component.ResourceInjectionAnnotationParsingProcessor.process(ResourceInjectionAnnotationParsingProcessor.java:224) at org.jboss.as.ee.component.ResourceInjectionAnnotationParsingProcessor.processMethodResource(ResourceInjectionAnnotationParsingProcessor.java:183) at org.jboss.as.ee.component.ResourceInjectionAnnotationParsingProcessor.deploy(ResourceInjectionAnnotationParsingProcessor.java:134) at org.jboss.as.server.deployment.DeploymentUnitPhaseService.start(DeploymentUnitPhaseService.java:115) ... 4 more 11:54:04,897 INFO [org.jboss.as.server] (MSC service thread 1-4) Service status report Services which failed to start: service jboss.deployment.unit."ccp.war".POST_MODULE: org.jboss.msc.service.StartException in service jboss.deployment.unit."ccp.war".POST_MODULE: Failed to process phase POST_MODULE of deployment "ccp.war" {noformat} I think AS7 should instead ignore this class. See the linked forum thread for more info.
