The only way I have gotten this type of setup to work is by packaging both apps as ears. One EJB3 ear and one WAR inside an ear. Then, have each ear include a jar with the common interfaces and use scoped loader repository entries in your jboss-app.xml in each ear. This, along with the call-by-value, etc, should allow you to do what you want without the CCE's. You gain the added benefit of being able to hot deploy any part of the app without restarting. Hope this helps, gary. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3984906#...
