Hi,
One of our clients wishes to use Remote interfaces that extend a second
interface to EJBObject. For example,
public interface someRemote extends javax.ejb.EJBObject,
someOtherInterface
{
...
}
The reason is that they want to install two or more Beans with the
common interface (someOtherInterface) so that they may use that other
interface to cast the Remote object returned by the create() methods.
someOtherInterface remote = (someOtherInterface) homeBeanA.create ();
remote.doSomething ();
someOtherInterface remote = (someOtherInterface) homeBeanB.create ();
remote.doSomethingElse ();
In searching the spec I cannot see that this use of interfaces is
allowed for Remote interfaces. But I also see no clear statement
forbidding it either. This might also be a container-specific issue.
Opinions?
Thanks,
Frank Gates
