"No original methods found" error when deploying EJBs that extend base classes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBAS-8780
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS-8780
             Project: JBoss Application Server
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
          Components: Deployers
    Affects Versions: 6.0.0.Final
            Reporter: Richard Kennard
            Assignee: Ales Justin
            Priority: Critical


An error, new to JBoss 6 (works okay in JBoss 5.1.0)...

"java.lang.IllegalStateException: No original methods found"

...halts deployment when you try to deploy an EJB that subclasses a base class with public methods.

For example, if you have a base class 'PersistentEntityBean' that has a bunch of methods related to loading/saving/deleting, and then you extend that base class with 'EmployerBean' simply to override loading/saving (but without adding any extra methods), it will fail to deploy.

A workaround (from the forum) appears to be to override *every* subclassed method and just call 'super'. However this error even occurs for public final methods, which clearly cannot be overridden.
