Calling EJB 3 Session Bean from EJB 2 Session Bean???

[sheadington]

Im trying to figure this out (without having to POC it)

I have a JBoss 3.2.3 server running JDK 1.4 with some stateless session beans deployed to it. I need to call some session beans on Weblogic 10, but they are EJB 3 beans. Can this be done?

Just thinking about it, it seems to me that EJB3 calling EJB2 should be no problem, but EJB2 calling EJB3 wont work

Has anyone tried this yet?

I haven't tried this, but you should be able to add EJB 2.1 client home with the @RemoteHome annotation.

Cool, thanks for the help. Appreciate it

I haven't tried it yet, either, but why shouldn't the following:

import com.foo.RemoteEjb3Interface;

public class StandaloneEjbClient {

 public static vaid main(String[] args) throws Exception {
 InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();
 RemoteEjb3Interface remote = (RemoteEjb3Interface) ic.lookup("java:comp/env/remoteEjb");

 remoteEjb.doSomething();
 }
}

work whether in a standalone app, a web servlet, or an EJB 2.1 bean?

I mean:

remote.doSomething();

but I hope you got the general idea.
