Who ever wrote the spec that said you couldn't open a socket in an EJB really wasn't living in the real world.
The only thing to watch is that MultiThreadedConnectionManager does start it's own thread for managing the pool, this does work in an EJB but it won't be shutdown correctly when the application is stopped, you may find that you create a thread leak.
Having said this I've only tried this in WebSphere 4 and 5. Version 4 it wasn't a big deal as the process for the appserver got restarted when re-installing the app, but in websphere 5 it caused a leak.

Hi,
We have all requests posted to a servlet which delegates the request to a Stateless Session Bean. Does creatring and invoking a Httpclient postmethod in a helper class invoked by the Stateless Session Bean violate any of the EJB specifications. (EJB spec says sockets are not to be created in EJB code etc. ). Please suggest.
Thanks, Karthi
