Is Timer Service supported in JBoss Micro Container?

[rajeshv7]

I tried using Asynchronous Seam anotation in my EJB3 application that is deployed inside the JBoss Micro Container, but the timer service doesn't seem to be available and it results in an NullPointerException.

I would very much appreciate it if some one tell me if the timer service is available in the JBoss Micro Container?

Alright, I found the answer. EJB Timer service not supported in Embeddable EJB 3.0

http://docs.jboss.org/ejb3/embedded/embedded.html

From the "Where is RC10?" posting:

http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=103397

But where is Embedded EJB3? Again a simple answer: it has been promoted to JBoss 5 Embedded. From the start Embedded EJB3 was actually the usage of JBoss 5 microcontainer technology to run EJB3 itself. Now it can run everything JBoss AS can. More on this soon.

Could anyone comment on when the new embedded EJB3 container might be available? I really could do with this.

Best Regards,

Chris.

The embedded timer services has been disabled because of a bug (http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/EJBTHREE-702). You can re-enable it in embedded-jboss-beans.xml.

You can find info on Embedded JBoss here: http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=EmbeddedJBoss. There is currently no distribition yet, so you'll have to build it from SVN.
