Non-deterministic Default JNDI Name

[alrubinger]

Assume:

@Stateless
@Remote(MultipleRemoteBindingsTest.class)
@RemoteBindings(
{@RemoteBinding(jndiBinding = MultipleRemoteBindingsTest.JNDI_BINDING_1),
 @RemoteBinding(jndiBinding = MultipleRemoteBindingsTest.JNDI_BINDING_2)})
public class MultipleRemoteBindingsTestBean{}

The JNDI Name for this bean is non-deterministic, as there's nothing to signal a true default.

JBossSessionBeanMetaData smd = ...; // This is decorated
String jndiName = smd.getJndiName();

At the moment it's JBossSessionPolicyDecorator that chooses the first populated @RemoteBinding.jndiBinding to be default:

@Override
 public String getMappedName()
 {
 // Obtain remote bindings
 List<RemoteBindingMetaData> bindings = this.delegate.getRemoteBindings();

 // If defined, use the first remote binding as a JNDI default
 if (bindings != null && bindings.size() > 0)
 {
 String jndiName = bindings.get(0).getJndiName();
 if (jndiName != null && jndiName.length() > 0)
 {
 return jndiName;
 }
 }

 ...}

Any specific reason why we need to know the "default" jndiname? Aren't we going to treat all jndi names equally?

Turns out: I don't think so. I ran into this while going through out @RemoteBinding handling to ensure all the bindings were made, and thought this might turn into a hitch of some type.

Not all. :)

That example makes for two bindings for the "Default Remote Business Interface using the default interceptor stack and remoting to the default Connector". So it turns out we can pick either for the "Default JNDI Name".

But some explicit @RemoteBindings will have different properties.

Further, there's the interface-specific bindings which may be invoked upon to get SessionContext.getInvokedBusinessInterface(). The intention is not to look these up directly, but they're the injection targets for the ENC of each component.
