Hi all.

I'm trying to deploy an EJB with JBoss.
I use xDoclet and ant to do the stuff and all is fine.

My EJb has a method that use Hibernate.
I put the hibernate jar in server/default/lib.

When my Ejb try to initialise hibernate, it provides it a url to a resource, contained in my jar, containing all hibernate mappings.

this resource is accessible from my jar with getClass().geResourceAsStream("/mappings.jar").

But, here is my problem : Hibernate can't access to it.

I can't find out why JBoss' s UnifiedClassLoader hide this resource to Hibernate. Therefore, with all I read on it, it should not ...

I tried to put hibernate.jar in server/default/deploy, but I think it's worth because it seems that server/default/lib and server/default/deploy are shared the same way.
I initially putted the hibernate.jar in jboss/lib, but I think that thoses libraries are not shared by UnifiedClassLoader.

Another solution would be to deploy hibernate inside my ejb's jar. But I can't figure out how to do this. I'm looking to EAR but every sample I find are using war's inside and 1 EJB.

Does anybody have any idea on how I could do ?
Where is my mystake on UnifiedClassLoader ?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Mike
