@Service was deprecated in AS6, so it will no longer be supported in AS7.

You can instead use @javax.ejb.Singleton which has been introduced in EJB3.1 and provides similar feature (except for JMX registration).

I am contemplating adding a JMX business view to SLSB and Singleton.

Would that cover your use case?

The main reason why @Service + @Management is no longer supported is documented in EJBTHREE-655.

I have a similair problem and don't know hot to fix it.

So  in jboss 5.1 and 6.0 we used  JBoss EJB 3.0 External API :

@Service(objectName = ....)

@Management(x.class)

@Depends({ ...name... })

How to replace that anotations in JBOSS 7 ?

There's no JMX capabilities for EJB3 in AS7 yet. However, if you were using @Service for the sake of doing some tasks at application startup, then you can achieve that functionality using @Startup @Singleton EJB3.1 bean.

JMX business view for SLSB and Singleton would be a great improvement. Here's our use case: We have huge applications that perform a lot of batch processing (banking/finance). The batch scheduling is triggered via UC4, which provide shell (.sh) and jmx executors. The batch application logic is implemented as EJB3 services.

This all works fine with JBoss EAP 4.3.X (@Management, @Service annotations). Without the jmx capabilities for EJB3, we are not able to migrate out applications to the new JBoss 7 (EAP 6) plattform.
