[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Application scoped component throws Serialization Exception

Hi, in my web application, I use some Application Scoped components that interact with other non-Seam components (i.e. Lucene) - since initializing components that are required takes a lot of time, I decided to use this approach. Now, I in the A-Scoped comp. I have a reference to some non-serializable components - which gives me problems if the application runs for some time (not initially after deployment but after some half hour or so). I get: org.jboss.serial.exception.SerializationException: Could not create instance of org.apache.lucene.index.IndexWriter - org.apache.lucene.index.IndexWriter I reckon it's related because I have: | @Startup(depends={"speechConfig","luceneConfig"}) | @Stateful | @Scope(ScopeType.APPLICATION) | @Name("processing") | public class Processing implements ProcessingIf, Serializable{ | | private LuceneIndexer indexer; | | ... | } | | | public class LuceneIndexer { | private String noEntries; | private IndexWriter iw; | public LuceneIndexer() { /* some initialization of iw */} | | public void indexEntry(String entry) { ... } | | } | Do you know what I could do in order to make sure that the IndexWriter doesn't get Serialized - since this seems to be the problem... thanks, Joey View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3998088#...
