[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0] - Session bean private methods and CMT:

[jnorris10]

It appears that bean methods for the purposes of CMT demarcation must be public (from looking at the pointcuts in ejb3-interceptors-aop.xml (in jboss 4.0.4/EJB3 RC7).

I can't find this information explicitly in the spec.  The spec states that "business methods" must be public.  Am I only able to use CMT on "business methods"?  I often want to have private methods on a session bean that still have transactional semantics (ie: annotate them with @TransactionAttribute(...)).  Can I not do this?  Am I missing something?

Thanks.
