[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0] - Reference-Problems within an ear

Hello! I have a problem deploying an ear with multiple ejb-modules. I have an ejb-module called "JbsCore.jar" and another ejb-module called "JbsCalendar.jar". I set up the order of the modules in the application.xml and set <module-order>strict</module-order> to make sure that JbsCalendar is deployed after JbsCore. Within JbsCalendar I have an entity-bean named Appointment that references an entity-bean (JbsUser) within JbsCore in this way: | @ManyToOne | public JbsUser getLastChangeUser() { | return lastChangeUser; | } | When I now try to deploy my application I get the following error: | org.hibernate.AnnotationException: @OneToOne or @ManyToOne on org.jabusuite.calendar.Appointment.lastChangeUser references an unknown entity: org.jabusuite.core.users.JbsUser | at org.hibernate.cfg.FkSecondPass.doSecondPass(FkSecondPass.java:56) | at org.hibernate.cfg.AnnotationConfiguration.processFkSecondPassInOrder(AnnotationConfiguration.java:428) | at org.hibernate.cfg.AnnotationConfiguration.secondPassCompile(AnnotationConfiguration.java:286) | at org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration.buildMappings(Configuration.java:1115) | at org.hibernate.ejb.Ejb3Configuration.buildMappings(Ejb3Configuration.java:1233) | [...] | As I have seen in the jboss-logs JbsCalendar is deployed just after JbsCore so this problem seems to have nothing to do with the deployment-order. This reference is used in nearly all entity-beans within JbsCore so this seems not to be a general problem with the reference. Isn't it possible to reference entities from another jar within the same ear? Both ejb-modules use the same persistence-unit. Am I doing something wrong? Is there another/better way to separate an enterprise-application into different modules? I'm using JBoss 4.2.2GA Hilwi View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4143668#...
