Container Configuration for Message Drive Bean for EJB 2.1 in JBOSS AS 6.0 EAP

[georgesg]

I am in the process of migrating the EJB2.1 application from JBOSS 4.3 eap to Jboss 6.0 EAP version 7.1.3 Final.

In this process, am migrating jboss.xml (for Jboss 4.3) contents to jboss-ejb3.xml (for Jboss 6.0)  . For MDB , there are container configurations defined in jboss 4.3. Attached is the jboss.xml file (from Jboss4.3) .

Kindly advise how to incorporate the container configurations in Jboss6.0 EAP.

With AS7/EAP6 it is not longer possible to configure the container within standardjboss.xml (server configuration) or jboss.xml (deployment descriptor). Both files are not longer supported

Thanks wolf for your fast response.

Yes, standardjboss.xml and jboss.xml are not longer present in EAP 6 Version 7.1.3 Final. It is ignored in the deployments. But there are equivalent configuration and deployment descriptors introduced.

jboss-ejb3.xml is equivalent of jboss.xml in eap 6,

Regarding server configuration , all the configurations are consolidated under one single configuration file which is either standalone.xml (for standalone mode) or doman.xml (for managed mode).

So, if at all i want to introduce Container configuration for functionalities such as container-interceptors, Is it possible or any equivalent feature available in EAP 6 Verson 7.1.3 Final ? Kindly advise.

Thanks

The possibility I know is to use the @Interceptors annotation, but indeed that will not cover all the use-cases as it is not possible to interrupt before security or Tx for example.

Our objective is to Migrate the existing applications in EJB 2.1 to EAP 6   . So, we wont be able to exploit the EJB annotations for this purpose .  So i believe there is no possibility of any interceptors for a MDB Container
