Internal invocation of EJB3 bean methods

created by Paul Robinson in EJB3 - View the full discussion

Hello,

 

I have a scenario where I am using CDI to add an interceptor to an EJB method. The interceptor is as follows:

 

 

@ServiceRequest
@Interceptor
public class ServiceRequestInterceptor
{
    @AroundInvoke
    public Object intercept(InvocationContext ic) throws Throwable
    {
        Method serviceMethod = ic.getMethod();
        Object serviceImpl = ic.getTarget();
 
        ProtocolHandler protocolHandler = HandlerFactory.createInstance(serviceImpl, serviceMethod);
 
        return protocolHandler.proceed(ic);
    }
 
}

 

This registers the EJB implementation class and the intercepted method with my middleware. My middleware will then invoke methods on the EJB at various times. The problem I am having is that the EJB implementing instance is invoked directly, by my middleware, due to the way I am obtaining the reference. This doesn't seem like the right approach to me as it is bypassing the EJB3 interceptors. Also, the EJB may be re-allocated, pasivated, etc, which is going to result in odd behavior, I expect.

 

Should I somehow look up the local stub to the EJB, based on what information I can gather from the implementation class; or is there a better way?

 

Thanks,

 

Paul.
