How to inject a remote EJB to a seam component

[cseuuu]

I deploy a ejb application (an EAR contains an EJB JAR) in JBoss.
One of the jndi name is ejbtest/HelloWorldImpl/remote.

And I deploy a web application (a WAR) in another JBoss, this web app uses seam.
There is a jndi.properties file in web app classpath.

Now I want to inject the remote ejb to my seam backing bean(HelloWorldAction).

I tried @EJB(mappedName="ejbtest/HelloWorldImpl/remote"), but not work.

But I can use InitialContext.lookup to get the remote ejb proxy.

Can I inject the remote ejb to seam component? And how?

I use seam 2.2.0.GA and JBoss 5.1.0.GA.

BTW, when I package the ejb and web module to one EAR, and deploy it in JBoss, I can use @In to inject the seam EJB component with jndi pattern(ejbtest/#{ejbName}/remote) defined in components.xml.

any one know this?

According to my search and research, it seems that seam does NOT provide the function to inject a remote EJB to seam component.

Are you searching something like this?

Seam Factory Component:

@Name("remoteEJBFactory")
public class RemoteEJBFactory {
    @Factory
    public HelloWorldRemote getHelloWorld() {
        Context ctx = new InitialContext();
        // [...]
        return (HelloWorldRemote) ctx.lookup("ejbtest/HelloWorldImpl/remote");
    }

    // [...]
}

Seam Component:

@Name("helloWorldClient")
public class HelloWorldClient {
    private @In HelloWorldRemote helloWorld;
    // [...]
}

Highly untested, Hope that helps!
