A few more questions related to this: 1) I have this interceptor deployed as a separate .aop artifact, separate from my application ear. Is it possible to somehow deploy this inside the ear (and therefore have my new aspect domain scoped inside it)? 2) I have called my aop descriptor "jboss-aop.xml". Since this inherits a domain from the main ejb3 interceptor stack, would this be better named "test-ejb3-interceptors-aop.xml" like the "aspectdomain" unit test, or does this name mean something else? What are the best practices for naming this? (btw, I could only get the .aop to deploy by calling it "jboss-aop.xml") 3) I have created a reusable transaction retry handler that ties into the jboss EJB3 interceptor stack (like the example above). Would this be a useful in the jboss aop aspect library as a reusable component? If so, what are the best practices for packaging this?
