If there is a more appropriate place to ask this question, please let me know....

I am using EJB3/Seam and need to access the annotations on a SFSB. When I retrieve the object, the getClass() methods tells me that it is a Proxy object.

I have access to the Local interfaces annotations, just not the SFSB annotation. Is there a way to access the annotation on the proxied object?

Specific I have the following class:

@Name("quote.editor")
@Stateful
public class QuoteEditor implements IQuoteEditor{

 public Quote quote;

 @Create
 @Begin
 public void initialize(){
 quote = load(Quote.class);
 items = new ArrayList<Item>();
 items.addAll(quote.getItems());
 }

 @Relate(name = "quote")
 public String save(){
 return super.save();
 }
}

In another SFSB I have a reference to the above SFSB:

@Stateful
@Scope(ScopeType.CONVERSATION)
@Name("quote.configurator")
public class QuoteConfigurator implements IQuoteConfigurator {

 public boolean getBooleanFalse(){
 return false;
 }

 private static final Log log = LogFactory.getLog(QuoteConfigurator.class);

 private TreeItem root;
 private TreeModel model;

 @RequestParameter
 private String selected;

 @DataModel
 private List<Product> products;

 @In(value="quote.editor")
 private IQuoteEditor qEditor;

 public String configure(){
 log.fatal(" methods for class["+qEditor.getClass()+"]:"); //<-- Proxy class and not a QuoteEditor
 for(Method m: qEditor.getMethods()){
 log.fatal(" method["+m.getName()+"]");
 for(Annotation ann : m.getAnnotations()){
 log.fatal(" int ann["+ann+"]");
 }
 }
 return "configure";
 }

}

All of the methods I expect (and a few more from the proxy stuff), are logged. However, none of the annotations are logged. Is there a way to access the class (or annotations) on the qEditor property?

TIA,
Chris....
