EJB3 PoolSize annotation overide

[wichka]

I am using EJB3 on Jboss 5 AS. The MDB have annotions defined for the MaxPoolSIze. I want to overide it so I used aop-domain-name to define the new MaxPoolSize in new custom-aop.xml file. The aop-domain-name was defined in jboss.xml and EJB does find the aop-domain-name correctly but the MaxPoolSize defined as a annotaton in EJB class file does not get ovverridden with the value in custom-aop.xml file.

Only if the drop the annotation in the class file the MaxPoolSize defined in cutom-aop.xml file takes effect, but it doesn't override if the annotation is already defined in EJB class file. Any tips from EJB gurus.

Thanks,
Wichka

Not sure i understood the question right. But if you are looking for ways to override the value without having to use that annotation within the MDB class, then you actually do not need an aop file to do so. You can set those values through jboss.xml as explained in our tutorials http://www.jboss.org/ejb3/docs/. Specifically, these:
