Howto get the EJB-Name by an Interceptor

[kristoeffy]

Hi! I've implemented an MBean that buffers an flushes TimeStamping-Information, which are given by Interceptors.
The information is flushed to a DB, and of course I want to safe _which_ EJB was called with which Method and which arguments.

I'm looking at it from the Interceptor-perspective:

The Method-name and given arguments are easy...
But how do I now which EJB is called.
I can only get the "Object objName" by "mi.getObjectName()" which is an Integer (e.g. -2051066433).
There must be a registry that does the mapping. Where? Which?
How do I get the reference?

I know that the Container (e.g. StatelessSessionContainer) builds itself a "beanMap" which he asks.
But it does not export any functionality which I could use, does it?

I just want to get something like the corresponding Class-Obj. for the EJB so I can store "de.uni-erlangen.ejb.myGreatBean" in my DB-Tuple.

Please answer me anybody out there (perhaps with a few lines of code).


P.S. During a invokeHome(mi)-call (for example by a create()-method) there is even no EnterpriseContext given. So how the could I get my information then!?!

Okay, with:
EnterpriseContext ctx = (EnterpriseContext) mi.getEnterpriseContext();
Container container = ctx.getContainer();
Class beanClass = container.getBeanClass();
I do come to a result.

But there is still the basic problem that I have NOT the EnterpriseContext during create()-calls. But also in that case the EJB must be known anyhow. So my solution lacks generality and therefore seems to be a "hack-around".

Each interceptor has a setContainer() method.
From that you can get the BeanMetaData.

Ahh, I missed this!
Nice that the answer comes so fast.
Thank you very much.
Now the server-side works (org.jboss.ejb.Interceptor)!

But on Client side I have to extend org.jboss.proxy.Interceptor, haven't I?
It hasn't the setContainer().
So we are back to the problem that I still don't know
how the basic information "Which Bean is meant" is passed.
In my opinion this is independant to whether I have access to the Container or not.

Glad, if someone could help and explain.

On the client side you have the invocation has
an InvocationContext. One of the keys for getValue()
is InvocationKey.JNDI_NAME
