The problem not only appears for {{start}} and {{stop}} methods, but also for {{create}}, {{destroy}} and probably any other method referenced in the xml but defined in a super class.

Providing such texts and letting the search engines to index them, helps some developers who just see some strange exceptions and have no idea what's wrong with their codes!

> Let's say we have a POJO A which extends a class B. The start/stop
> methods are defined in the class B. In the jboss-beans.xml file is
> something like this:
> <bean name="A" class="blah.blah.A"/>
> Then, only the constructor of A is invoked by AS7, but no invocation of
> start/stop methods occur. The start/stop methods are invoked only if
> they are directly defined in A.
