Stateless Session EJBs cannot contain a remove() method
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GERONIMO-3452
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-3452
             Project: Geronimo
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: OpenEJB
    Affects Versions: 2.0.x
         Environment: Windows XP SP2
            Reporter: Aman Nanner
             Fix For: 2.0.x, 2.1


We have a stateless session bean that contains a "remove(...)" method that 
takes in a specific type of array as a parameter.  It seems that the 
EJBObjectProxyHandler confuses this custom business method with the Entity Bean 
"remove(...)" method.  Once the logic sees that a method called "remove" is 
being called, it assumes that it is a "special" method instead of a business 
method.  Here is a stack trace up to the point where this piece of logic occurs:

Thread [http-80-3] (Suspended)  
        StatelessEjbObjectHandler(EjbObjectProxyHandler)._invoke(Object, Class, 
Method, Object[]) line: 62      
        StatelessEjbObjectHandler(BaseEjbProxyHandler).invoke(Object, Method, 
Object[]) line: 320       
        Jdk13InvocationHandler.invoke(Object, Method, Object[]) line: 49        
        $Proxy173.remove(FcModelKey[]) line: not available      
        FCRemoveTest.test() line: 75    
        ....
{panel}

The following code in the EjbObjectProxyHandler looks up the name of the method 
from the dispatch table and sees that it is a "special" method name.  However, 
this really only applies to Entity beans and not Session Beans.  Therefore, 
case 4 is executed, and the StatelessEjbObjectHandler.remove(...) method is 
called, which is empty and only returns null.

{code}
            Integer operation = (Integer) dispatchTable.get(m.getName());

            if (operation == null) {
                retValue = businessMethod(interfce, m, a, p);
            } else {
                switch (operation.intValue()) {
                    case 1:
                        retValue = getHandle(m, a, p);
                        break;
                    case 2:
                        retValue = getPrimaryKey(m, a, p);
                        break;
                    case 3:
                        retValue = isIdentical(m, a, p);
                        break;
                    case 4:
                        retValue = remove(interfce, m, a, p);
                        break;
                    case 5:
                        retValue = getEJBHome(m, a, p);
                        break;
                    case 6:
                        retValue = getEJBLocalHome(m, a, p);
                        break;
                    default:
                        throw new RuntimeException("Inconsistent internal 
state");
                }
            }

            return retValue;
{code}

We have not run into this problem with JBoss and Weblogic.  I do not believe 
having a method called "remove" on a Stateless Session bean is in violation of 
any spec, so this should work.
