Support for EJB 2.1 SLSBs in AS 7.0.1?
I've been tooling around with AS 7.0.1 a bit and have been able to get most of the newer applications working (EJB 3, JAX-WS, Servlet 3.0, etc.), however, I have run into a snag with some older EJB 2.1 applications that I have yet to upgrade. I'm wondering if the support for EJB 2.1 in AS 7.0.1 using the standalone-preview.xml configuration is there yet or if I should hold off doing anything with this until AS 7.1 ships?
My particular problem has to do with deploying an EJB 2.1 SLSB that contains an embedded resource-ref to a JDBC DataSource. Below should show the XML configuration:
ejb-jar.xml (EJB 2.1 DD)
<session> <display-name>Simple Stateless SessionBean that connects to MySQL using JDBC</display-name> <ejb-name>JDBCStateless</ejb-name> <local-home>rjb.jdbc.ejb.JDBCStatelessLocalHome</local-home> <local>rjb.jdbc.ejb.JDBCStatelessLocal</local> <ejb-class>rjb.jdbc.ejb.JDBCStatelessBean</ejb-class> <session-type>Stateless</session-type> <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type> <resource-ref> <res-ref-name>cookbook</res-ref-name> <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> <res-auth>Container</res-auth> </resource-ref> </session>
jboss.xml
<session> <ejb-name>JDBCStateless</ejb-name> <local-jndi-name>JDBCStatelessLocal</local-jndi-name> <resource-ref> <res-ref-name>cookbook</res-ref-name> <jndi-name>java:jboss/datasources/cookbook</jndi-name> </resource-ref> </session>
Upon deployment, it seems like this EJB 2.1 bean gets JNDI names like an EJB 3.0 bean, creating what I have seen from other EJB 3.0 beans. Afterwards there is a deployment failure with a circular reference for jboss-as. This is shown in the log output below:

I am thinking it has somethign to do with the resource-ref but I have never seen a message like this and am wondering if anyone has some insights?
Thanks,
