What are the rules and relationships between EJB3 annotations and the similar functionality available through ejb-jar.xml elements? And how do JBossWS annotations play in this space? Does one take precedence over the other? Should mixing them be avoided? Are there any examples of doing this?
I don't want to mess with ejb-jar.xml but there seem to be ejb-jar.xml elements that do not map to any annotations. The one I am most interested is the <method-permission> element, for which there seems to be no comparable annotation. I must have this functionality, but can it be combined with annotations? Is trying to mix them a minefield? Are there any examples of doing this sort of thing? Or is there a way to achieve <method-permission> without an ejb-jar.xml?
