I would like to keep the jndi names bound with the ear name that way i can deploy multiple applications with the same beans (or at least bean names) together on the same jboss instance. The question is more of internal to the application, if I need to look up a bean, but cannot use injections (in my case because it is a scheduled job not a bean), how can I find the ear name/application a class is deployed in at runtime? Is that even possible View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3980112#...
