[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0] - is mappedName needed to reference an EJB in JSF or not?

JBoss 5.0.0.GA Hi, I'm exhausted searching for some enlightenment on whether the attribute "mappedName" in @EJB is needed or not in a JSF Managed Beans. Could please anyone enlighten me on this subject? I'm getting error message like "Resolution should not happen via injection container" if I don't specify mappedName. I want to avoid mappedName as much as possible. Or is it unavoidable? Also, what's the difference between applying @EJB to field from applying to a class? Consider the following example: @Stateless | @EJB(name="audit", beanInterface=AuditLocal.class) | public class MyBean implements MyBeanRemote, MyBeanLocal { | | SessionContext context; | AuditLocal audit; | | public void setSessionContext(SessionContext context) { | this.context = context; | } | | @PostConstruct | public void init() { | audit = (AuditLocal) context.lookup("audit"); | } | // ... | } My guess is, if @EJB is declared at the class level, the container tries to inject the session bean into java:/comp/env/audit JNDI name instead of injecting it to the field directly as opposed to @EJB that is declared at the field level. Did I get it right? And it knows what EJB to inject in java:/comp/env/audit by relying on the value of beanInterface attribute, is that right?
