Seam 2.1.1 + WebSphere v7.0: anyone?

[titou09]

Anyone using Seam v2.1.1 on WebSphere v7.0.0.1?

Are we the ony ones hit by JBSEAM-3726 ?

Yes I did, but thank to your informations, I made walkthrough for Seam 2.1.1.GA and WAS 7.0

Click HELP for text formatting instructions. Then edit this text and check the preview.wow. Nice shot Julien.

Maybe, to complete your doc, you should have a look at my answers to the following thread that explains how to config things for jndi resolutions to work and how to configure SFSB timeouts:
WAS config because I think you'll have jndi resolution problem with your setup

Maybe it's time for me to describe the way we organize our seam 2.1.1/WAS v7.0 projects.

In fact are own projects are build quite differently than yours:

We create only project to be deployed as an app (ear) with ejb and jpa classes put apart
Let say your application is called MyApp. In RSA v7.5.1, the structure of the project is the following:

MyApp (=ear)
  -> via properties/Java EE Module Dependencies/J2EE Modules
    jboss-el.jar
    jboss-seam.jar  (Patched as described in JBOSS-3726)
    hibernate-annotations.jar (v3.4)
    hibernate-commons-annotations.jar (v3.4)
    hibernate-entitymanager.jar (v3.4)
    log4j-1.2.15.jar
    antlr-2.7.6.jar
    dom4j-1.6.1.jar

    hibernate-validator.jar (v3.1)
    commons-beanutils-1.7.0.jar
    commons-collections-3.1.jar
    commons-digester-1.6.jar
    javassist.jar (v3.9 !!!)
  META-INF
    appliction.xml (Add jboss-seam as a module, remove javassist as a module as RSA will add it automatically...)
    ibmconfig...
       (Generated by using Java EE/Generate WebSphere Extended deployment descriptor, and set the ear classloader to PARENT_LAST)

MyAppEJB
  -> via properties/Java EE Module Dependencies/J2EE Modules (JARS FROM EAR PROJECT)
    MyAppJPA
    jboss-seam.jar
  src
    META-INF
      ejb.jar.xml  (with seam interceptors declaration only...)
      ibm-ejb-jar.ext.xml (Add SFSB timeout settings here...)
      seam.properties
      
MyAppJPA
  -> via properties/Java EE Module Dependencies/J2EE Modules (JARS FROM EAR PROJECT)
     antlr-2.7.6.jar 
     commons-logging-1.1.jar 
     dom4j-1.6.1.jar 
     hibernate-annotations.jar 
     hibernate-commons-annotations.jar

     commons-logging-1.1.jar 
     jboss-el.jar 
     jboss-seam.jar 
     richfaces-api-3.3.0.GA.jar 
     hibernate-validator.jar
  -> via properties/Java EE Module Dependencies/Web Libraries the following
     jsf-facelets.jar
     jboss-seam-ui.jar
     richfaces-impl-3.3.0.GA
     richfaces-ui-3.3.0.GA.jar
     jboss-seam-debug.jar

      ibm-web-ext.xml
      pages.xml
      web.xml (Add a ref named EjbSynchronizations to LocalEjbSynchronizations)

Then use @JndiName annotation in EJBs as decribed in the referenced post

Thanks Denis, I added links to your posts.
BTW, the walkthrough is in a wiki, so you can edit it yourself if you want.
