Hi,

I'm trying to migrate my ear-File from JBoss 5.1 to JBoss AS 7.01. I'm using EJB 2.1 and cannot change to 3.0 right now.

AS7 does not yet have EJB2.1 support. It will be available in AS 7.1

Ideas and comments:

 

- Is there a way to alias the JNDI names or to use a mapping from the new JNDI namespace to the 2.1 standard i.e from

java:app/OrderManagerEJB/ProductManagerBean!services.ejb.ProductManager

to

OrderManagerApp/ProductManagerBean/local

 

We haven't yet thought of whether we will be allowing JBoss specific JNDI names (via descriptors for example) for the beans. We might allow it (if we don't see any issue with doing that), considering that it might help the migration.

hi,municheast

The EJB2.1 Object not found by JNDI issue do you have a good solution?

my app also couldn't change to EJB3.0. if you have a good solution,please tell me, thanks!!

If you want true compliancy and portability you should never do global lookups. Instead you should define ejb-refs / ejb-local-refs in the web.xml / ejb-jar.xml descriptors, then use the product specific descriptors to associate them with a jndi-name or lookup-name.

For AS 7 it would look like:

ejb-jar.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ejb-jar xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
            http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/ejb-jar_3_1.xsd"
      version="3.1">
   <enterprise-beans>
      <session>
         <ejb-name>Simple31Bean</ejb-name>
         <ejb-ref>
            <ejb-ref-name>other</ejb-ref-name>
         </ejb-ref>
      </session>
   </enterprise-beans>
</ejb-jar>

jboss-ejb3.xml:

<jboss:ejb-jar
        xmlns:jboss="http://www.jboss.com/xml/ns/javaee"
        xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.jboss.com/xml/ns/javaee http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/schema/jboss-ejb3-2_0.xsd
           http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://www.jboss.org/j2ee/schema/jboss-ejb3-spec-2_0.xsd"
        version="3.1"
        impl-version="2.0">
   <enterprise-beans>
      <session>
         <ejb-name>Simple31Bean</ejb-name>
         <ejb-ref>
            <ejb-ref-name>other</ejb-ref-name>
            <lookup-name>java:app/othermodule/OtherBean</lookup-name>
         </ejb-ref>
      </session>
   </enterprise-beans>
</jboss:ejb-jar> 

Note that currently using a 2.1 ejb-jar descriptor is not yet supported, see JBMETA-341.

Does AS version 7.1.0.CR1b support EJB 2.1

Thanks

Does AS version 7.1.0.CR1b support EJB 2.1

Thanks

Yes, it does support EJB 2.x...

Thanks Prasad. It worked.

Hi,

Finally, did you find a way to use EJB 2 in AS7.1? If is the case, could you please tell us how to do in the related ticket : https://community.jboss.org/message/722458.

Thanks in advance !

I have tried with stateless session beans alone.
