Currently I am trying to inject a stateless EJB into a CDI managed controller on Jboss 6 AS Final. The controller is managed in the context an accessible from the JSF pages. If I inject the stateless bean with @EJB
it is working. If I inject the stateless EJB with @Inject
I get the following Exception:
My controller:
@Named("TestController")
public class TestController {
@Inject
private TestManagerLocal myTestManager;
...
}
}
My stateless bean:
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
@Stateless
public class TestManagerBean implements TestManagerLocal {
@PersistenceContext
private EntityManager em;
...
}
The Interface of the Bean is annotated with @Local.
If I try to call myTestManager I get the following exception:
WELD-000079 Could not find the EJB in JNDI: class de.crud.org$jboss$weld$bean-jboss$classloader:id="vfs:$$$usr$local$jboss$server$default$deploy$test$ear"-SessionBean-TestManagerBean_$$_WeldProxy
THX a lot.
For those not having the luxury to change an ear to a war, I've found the following workaround:
@Inject
with the qualifier for those producer methods:Code:
// This bean is defined in the WEB module
@Stateless
public class EJBFactory {
@EJB
protected UserDAO userDAO;
// ~X other EJBs injected here
@Produces @EJBBean
public UserDAO getUserDAO() {
return userDAO;
}
// ~X other producer methods here
}
Now EJBs from anywhere in the EAR can be injected with:
// This bean is also defined in the web module
@RequestScoped
public class MyBean {
@Inject @EJBBean
private UserDAO userDAO; // injection works
public void test() {
userDao.getByID(...); // works
}
}
EJBBean is a simple standard qualifier annotation. For completeness, here it is:
@Qualifier
@Retention(RUNTIME)
@Target({TYPE, METHOD, FIELD, PARAMETER})
public @interface EJBBean {
}
