overriding jboss configuration

[vitor_b]

Hello

There is a file: standardjboss.xml
This file contains JBoss configuration. But there is a posibility to override some properties by adding element <container-configurations> to jboss.xml file from META-INF of our archive, example:

<jboss>
 <enterprise-beans>
 ...
 </enterprise-beans>
 <container-configurations>
 <container-configuration extends "(name of proper configuration)">
 <container-pool-conf>
 <MaximumSize>2</MaximumSize>
 <strictMaximumSize>true</strictMaximumSize>
 </container-pool-conf>
 </container-configuration>
 </container-configurations>
</jboss>

This example will change pooling configuration.

And here i have some questions:

This configuration is written in jboss.xml file. Does this mean that configuration will be overridden only for beans in this specific archive?

Lets suppose i have an application contains 5 jar files. Configuration is overridden in only one jboss.xml file. This configuration sets new pooling properties for stateless session beans, but i have stateless session beans in all 5 jar files. So deas this mean that specific configuration will be in force only for beans from this one jar file?

Thank you for your reply in advance :)
