Also, make sure that you use the <context:annotation-config/> namespace element in your Spring configuration, and make sure you don't have circular dependencies ala EJB->SpringBean->EJB etc, which would make the process of creating the components pretty awkward. As a note, @Spring is a JBoss-specific annotation used for injecting SpringDeployer-created beans into EJBs but it does not work the other way around.
