I am quite new to EJB. There is a question I could not find answer from the EJB spec. Could somebody out there give me some guide? How EJB handles client timeout? For example, I have one stateless Session bean (Bean A) in one container calling another stateless Session bean (Bean B) in another container. If the Bean B container some how crashes or takes too long to complete its execution, can Bean A get notified or timed out? I was thinking the time-out value in Session bean descriptor can help, but further reading the spec I realized that time-out value is used for container to evict any non-active Statefull session bean. If I implement a timer in Bean A, then I need to spawn thread, it is not allowed by the spec. In my test, when Bean B enters a infinite loop, Bean A just hangs there. Is anything I can do here?
