[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (EJBTHREE-1074) Circular @EJB3 references in session beans fail to deploy.

Guy Coleman commented on EJBTHREE-1074:
---------------------------------------

It'd be great if this could be fixed for EJB3: cyclic dependencies work for EJB2 beans, and also work in Weblogic for both EJB2 and EJB3 beans. We've got over 200 session beans and tracking down the exact dependencies that JBoss doesn't like takes a long time.

Another problem is that @IgnoreDependency doesn't work when you have class-level @EJB references.

>             Project: EJB 3.0
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: AS 4.2.1.GA
>            Reporter: Gunnar Grim

> The following circular references makes the application undeployable:
> In ArchiveBrokerBean:
>   @EJB 
>   private SeriesBrokerLocal itsSeriesBroker;	
> In SeriesBrokerBean
>   @EJB 
>   private ArchiveBrokerLocal itsArchiveBroker;	
> Circular references like these work fine in Glassfish but JBoss shows the following error message:
> ObjectName: jboss.j2ee:ear=klara5.ear,jar=klara5.jar,name=ArchiveBroker,service=EJB3
>   State: NOTYETINSTALLED
