Accessing beans through the remote interface is working well. Within the container I want to have a bean access another bean - I think via the local interface (but I'll take what I can get). However i get a null reference back - any ideas what I am doing wrong?


private static IMyoneLocal getMyone() throws ClassCastException, NamingException {
return (IMyoneLocal) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(
getBean(), IMyoneRemote.class);
}

private static Object getBean() throws NamingException {
if (ctx == null) {
ctx = new InitialContext();
}
String beanName = "MyoneBean/local";
Object ref = ctx.lookup(beanName);
return ref;
}

Is there anything special I need to meet the requirements of the context - seems unlikely given that I am in the container?

thanks
