[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0] - How to retrieve an EJB from a JAR used in many EAR ?

[chawax]

Hi,

I work with EJB3 (I am a newbie) and I have problems about state of the art way to retrieve an EJB from a JAR that will be used on many EAR projects. 

I have the following EJB (generated from AndroMDA) :

<session>
  |     <description>
  |         <![CDATA[
  |                 
  |         ]]>
  |     </description>
  |     <ejb-name>ServiceEmployeBean</ejb-name>
  |     <remote>myCompany.ServiceEmployeRemote</remote>
  |     <ejb-class>myCompany.ServiceEmployeBean</ejb-class>
  |     <session-type>Stateless</session-type>
  |     <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
  | </session>

My JAR contains Seam pojo classes that need to retrieve this EJB. I could do it this way :

protected ServiceAbsenceRemote getServiceAbsence() throws Exception
  | {
  |     if (this.serviceAbsence == null) {
  |         InitialContext initialContext = new InitialContext();
  |     	this.serviceAbsence = (ServiceAbsenceRemote) 
  |             initialContext.lookup("t4-ihm-self-ear-1.0-SNAPSHOT/ServiceAbsenceBean/remote");
  |     }
  |     return this.serviceAbsence;
  | }

As you can see, the problem is that I need to prefix the EJB name with the EAR name. If I don't do that I have a "ServiceAbsenceBean" not bound message. So it looks like this JAR can be used only in one EAR and I ask myself how it could work in another EAR ?

I am sure I do something wrong, so please tell me ;)

Thanks in advance
