how to invoke class in other jars

[yararay]

I want to invoke classes in other jars, but jboss coundn't find it. Should I configure additional information in xml? Could anyone give me an example?

Just copy the jar file into the JBoss classpath directory (%JBOSS_HOME%\lib\ext).

Maybe I didn't express my meaning clearly. I want to invoke class in other jars and all jars are ejbs and must be deployed first, so all jars must in the deploy directory. How to invoke?

Hey yarAray,

there is only sone solution as far as EJB's are concerned:

If you want instantiate other EJB's from within an EJB you will have to pack all the classes into the same JAR. That will work!

Have fun,

Hello.
Try adding Class-Path into the MANIFEST.MF of your jar file. So if the bean in A.jar is using a method in B.jar, the MANIFEST.MF in A.jar should look something like so:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Class-Path: B.jar
