To view the discussion, visit: http://community.jboss.org/message/607297#607297 -------------------------------------------------------------- Hi, as you wrote, "Home interfaces" are gone in EJB 3.x. Bean instances are created whenever needed: if using an "@EJB" annotation, the server will create a new bean (or take an unused instance from the pool). If you inject a stateful session bean, the server will also take care to restore the state from some previous session. And if you perform a JNDI lookup, you will also get a fresh instance of the bean. I think that each lookup of a stateful bean will kill its state - so if you need a stateful bean, store it in some membervariable on the client side after the initial lookup. Hope this helps Wolfgang -------------------------------------------------------------- Reply to this message by going to Community [http://community.jboss.org/message/607297#607297] Start a new discussion in EJB3 at Community [http://community.jboss.org/choose-container!input.jspa?contentType=1&...]
