Stateless Stereotype - is this possible?

[jaqqbek]

Hi

Is this possible to define a stereotype that is marked as a stateless? I am asking becouse I cannot find an answer in spec. and proof of concept throws some exceptipons



`@Named
@Stereotype
@Target({ElementType.TYPE,ElementType.FIELD,ElementType.METHOD})
@Retention(RetentionPolicy.RUNTIME)
@Stateless
public @interface Action {

}`

when I deploy any bean marked with this stereotype on glassfish I see exception that is attached in the end of this post. App is deployed as war archive.
When I move the @Stateless from stereotype directly to bean it works ok.

I would be grateful for any hints.
