Communication between Jboss 4.0.5 and Jboss 7.1.1

[huasonator]

Hi folcks,

I have a server with jboss-4.0.5.GA, yes is old but work fine for me for years, now i get the new server jboss 7.1, but i read that the JNP has now been replaced and now i have a headache for the lookup.

My scenario:

1. Server "A" with jboss-4.0.5.GA and example-ejb21-1.0.jar, this EJB have a service interface, home interface and the bean, the JNDI is "Example"
2. Server "B" with jboss-as-7.1.1.Final, and example.war, with a simple Servlet which calls the Server "A" for the remote interface.

How a can get the remote interface if JNP has been replaced?

JNP is replaced if you are a client of AS7.

The AS7 will act as a 'normal' client for AS4.

Due to the new classloading you have to add the jboss4-client libraries as module and set a manifest dependency to it for the example.war

Inside the war you can use the old style client invocation to your JBoss4 app.
