ejb-link in local references

[albertok]

Hi,

I am using 3.0.8 Jboss and have a problem with local reference. As far as I know ejb-link is obligatory for local references, so is it possible to achieve communication beanA<->beanB through local references if they are in different jar files.

From my testing it seems that beanB must be deployed before I can use it in deploying beanA. So it is a loop in peer-to-peer communication and you cannot deploy them in such style.

Is there any chance to resolve that issue or I need to use then remote lookups?
Do anybody know if any JBoss version support ejb-link optional for local references?

Thanks in advance,
Albert

Ok,

I think that I found a solution. We may package all jar files into one EAR then it is possiblly to lookup locally in both ways.
