Could you please open a topic in the JBossWS forum for discussing the injection of EJB in WebServices http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewforum&f=200? From what i see in the JBossWS JIRA, support for @Resource injection was added in WebServices but it does not mention @EJB injection. Someone from the JBossWS team might be able to provide some clue as to why the injection doesn't happen. View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4225606#...
