Which EJB specs are supported!

[lars_ohlen]

Hi,

I have seen both 2.0 and 2.1 as the EJB spec for JBoss 4.
Is it both or just 2.1?

How about 1.0 and 1.1 specs. Is JBoss backward compatible?

ejb 2.1 and below are supported

Hi,

i have problems with ejb 2.1. i am trying to deploy a mdb, the ejb-jar.xml looks like this:

<ejb-jar xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
 xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
 xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/ejb-jar_2_1.xsd"
 version="2.1"
>
 <enterprise-beans>
 <message-driven >
 <ejb-name>SomeQueueBean</ejb-name>
 <ejb-class>de.codebox.ejb.SomeQueueBean</ejb-class>
 <messaging-type>javax.jms.MessageListener</messaging-type>
 <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
 <message-destination-type>javax.jms.Queue</message-destination-type>
 <message-destination-link>JustALink</message-destination-link>
 <activation-config>
 <activation-config-property>
 <activation-config-property-name>acknowledgeMode
 </activation-config-property-name>
 <activation-config-property-value>Auto-acknowledge
 </activation-config-property-value>
 </activation-config-property>
 <activation-config-property>
 <activation-config-property-name>destinationType
 </activation-config-property-name>
 <activation-config-property-value>javax.jms.Queue
 </activation-config-property-value>
 </activation-config-property>
 ...

When i deploy the bean i get the following warning:

10:19:15,093 WARN [JMSContainerInvoker] No message-driven-destination given; using; guessing type
10:19:15,109 WARN [JMSContainerInvoker] Could not determine destination type, defaults to: javax.jms.Topic
...

I thought "message-driven-destination" is not(!) in ejb 2.1(?). The source code (MessageDrivenMetaData.java) in JBoss 4.0:

// messaging-type is new to EJB-2.1
 messagingType = getOptionalChildContent(element, "messaging-type", DEFAULT_MESSAGING_TYPE);

 // destination is optional
 Element destination = getOptionalChild(element, "message-driven-destination");
 if (destination != null)

...

Also i couldn't find any support for "message-destination-link". How did you get the examples (with <message-destination-type>javax.jms.Queue</message-destination-type>) in the wiki working?

Thanks for your help!

I've added your question to the FAQ:

http://www.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ConfigJBoss4MDB

[adrian.brock]

You are correct, support for
message-destination-link and message-destination-ref
is missing from JBoss4.

It is irrelevent for basic MDB config.

Please report it is as a bug:
