    Single MDB Instance Required

      Hello community,

      i am developing an Event Driven architecture using j2ee (MDB) on JBoss. In this Architecture the incoming business events (raw events) will be fetched by a MDB, wich forward the raw events to Event Stream Processor. My Problem is that JBoss instantiate multiple instances of my MDB. It means the same event will be delivered repeatedly. I just tried to force JBoss to limit the number of MDB instances. But it was useless. My jboss.xml look like this:
      <?xml version="1.0"?>
      <!DOCTYPE jboss PUBLIC
      "-//JBoss//DTD JBOSS 3.2//EN"
      "http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/dtd/jboss_3_2.dtd">
      <!-- The jboss.xml descriptor for the jrmp-comp.jar ejb unit -->

      i also made some changes in conf/jbossstandard.xml. The referenced configuration "Standard Message Driven Bean" like following:

      <call-logging>false</call-logging>

      <container-pool-conf>
      1
      true

      </container-pool-conf>
      </container-configuration>


      can you please tell me, what my mistake is.

      thanks

            Sounds like you want to change your MDB to use the "Singleton Message Driven Bean" container configuration.
