I have lot of MBean Services created using @Service and @Management annotations. I am not using -service xml instead using @Service annotation so that I can use annotations like @EJB.These Services depends on various EJBs and to get reference of ejbs from Services I am using @EJB annotation. This is how the code is: @Service | @Management(StartupMBean.class) | @Depends("jboss:name=SmcBarrier,type=Barrier") | public class UserStartup | implements StartupMBean { | | @EJB | private ObjectManagerLocal objectManager; | @EJB | private PropertyManagerLocal propertyManager; | ..... | ..... | public void start() { | ..... | ..... | } | | It would be highly appreciated if anybody let me know how to achieve all these if I want convert my POJO mbeans to microcontainer beans. Are there equivalent annotations in microcontainer for @EJB , @Depends. Or it is not possible in microcontained bean to achieve these through annotations without using -beans.xml View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4242025#...
