Here's what I see as these two SLSB are initialized by Seam when debug is on: | 10:49:19,760 INFO [Component] Component: ingestService, scope: STATELESS, type: STATELESS_SESSION_BEAN, class: com.fb.core.business.IngestServiceImpl, JNDI: IngestServiceImpl/local | 10:49:19,762 DEBUG [Component] interceptor stack: [Interceptor(org.jboss.seam.interceptors.MethodContextInterceptor), Interceptor(org.jboss.seam.interceptors.BijectionInterceptor)] | 10:49:19,762 DEBUG [Component] seam component not found: org.jboss.seam.core.events | 10:49:19,762 DEBUG [Component] seam component not found: org.jboss.seam.core.events | 10:49:19,762 INFO [Component] Component: ingestUtil, scope: STATELESS, type: STATELESS_SESSION_BEAN, class: com.fb.core.business.ingest.CsvIngestUtil, JNDI: CsvIngestUtil/local | 10:49:19,767 DEBUG [Component] interceptor stack: [Interceptor(org.jboss.seam.interceptors.MethodContextInterceptor)] | 10:49:19,767 DEBUG [Component] seam component not found: org.jboss.seam.core.events | 10:49:19,767 DEBUG [Component] seam component not found: org.jboss.seam.core.events | So ingestUtil isn't intercepted by the BiInjectionInterceptor. I could add it explicitly, but am confused as to why one SLSB would get it and another would not. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4035076#...
