So far so good. The admin console and the jmx-console showed me that the AS now knows an the connection-factoty JMX (jboss.jca) * http://localhost:8080/jmx-console/HtmlAdaptor?action=inspectMBean&nam... name=NoTransFS,service=ConnectionFactoryBinding * http://localhost:8080/jmx-console/HtmlAdaptor?action=inspectMBean&nam... name=NoTransFS,service=ManagedConnectionFactory * http://localhost:8080/jmx-console/HtmlAdaptor?action=inspectMBean&nam... name=NoTransFS,service=ManagedConnectionPool * http://localhost:8080/jmx-console/HtmlAdaptor?action=inspectMBean&nam... name=NoTransFS,service=NoTxCM Admin-Console View by Type: All Types No Tx ConnectionFactories Tx ConnectionFactories || Name || Type || Status || Actions || | %1,4% http://localhost:8080/admin-console/images/spacer.gif (http://localhost:8080/admin-console/images/spacer.gif) | | NoTransFS (http://localhost:8080/admin-console/secure/summary.seam?path=-13&conv...) | No Tx ConnectionFactory (http://localhost:8080/admin-console/secure/summary.seam?path=-3%2FResourc...) | UP | | Now I'd like to use it in my beans to use file access without using java.io.* so I used the following code: import javax.annotation.Resource; import javax.resource.cci.ConnectionFactory;   ...       @Resource(name="NoTransFS")     private DirContextFactory dcf;       public String action() {         try {             DirContext dc = dcf.getConnection();             NamingEnumeration<SearchResult> res = dc.search("myFile", null);             while (res.hasMore()) {                 System.out.println(res.next().toString());             }         } catch (NamingException e) {             e.printStackTrace();         }         return null;     }   ...   Unfortunately I can't look up the ConnectionFactory so I'll always receive a NullPointerException.I tried several kinds of the @Resource annotation but nothing works out.
