Here is what I want to do:
JBoss version 2.4.4
1. setup a pool of MDBs. each MDB creates a socket-like connection upon ejbCreate() as an instance variable.
2. when a bean receives a message via onMessage() part of the processing utilizes the instance connection.
I setup the following in jboss.xml:
3
1
and when logging I output the hashcode of the instance so I can tell them apart.
The resulting behavior is not what I expected.
The size of the pool appears to be ignored. There seems to be a new instance of MDB created upon receiving every message.
Any ideas?
