Doing it programmatically works: @Name("shoppingCart") | @Scope(ScopeType.SESSION) | public class ShoppingCartManager | { | private ShoppingCart shoppingCart; | | @Create | public void create() throws NamingException | { | InitialContext ic = new InitialContext(); | //shoppingCart = (ShoppingCart) ic.lookup(ShoppingCart.class.getName()); | shoppingCart = (ShoppingCart) ic.lookup("wct-example/ShoppingCartBean/local"); | } | | @Unwrap | public ShoppingCart getShoppingCart() { | return shoppingCart; | } | } But why not with the components.xml? Is this a bug? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4071303#... Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&a...
