as your jndiView states different local interfaces should be located right in the GlobalNameSpace. So they should be looked up via new InitialContext().lookup(<InterfaceName>);. Besides that there are some ejb's bound to ejb/, so ejb/ should be used for lookup code. As far as I can see from your JndiTrace it should be possible to retrieve the home interface like this (i.e. for SessionMaterial found here anonymous wrote : | +- UILConnectionFactory[link -> ConnectionFactory] (class: javax.naming.LinkRef) | +- ejb (class: org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContext) | | +- SessionMaterial (proxy: $Proxy76 implements interface com.skandia.model.session.material.SessionMaterialHome,interface javax.ejb.Handle) | | +- SessionCodes (proxy: $Proxy74 implements interface com.skandia.model.session.codes.SessionCodesHome,interface javax.ejb.Handle) | | ... | Object obj = ictx.loopup("ejb/SessionMaterial"); | SessionMaterialHome home = PortableRemoteObject.narrow(obj, SessionMaterialHome.class); | SessionMaterial ejb = home.create(); | ... | View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4057752#...
