(Reproducible in at least the jboss-2.2.2-tomcat-3.2.2 and jboss-2.4.0-tomcat-3.2.3 bundles) Details: The code I'm looking at has an MBean that registers a bunch of entries at startup in the following manner: Context ctx = new InitialContext(); Context fooCtx = ctx.createSubcontext("foo"); Context barCtx = fooCtx.createSubcontext("one"); barCtx.bind(string1, value1); barCtx.bind(string2, value2); ... There is also an EJB which binds an object in this way: Context ctx = new InitialContext(); try { ctx.createSubcontext("foo"); } catch( NameAlreadyBoundException ne ) { ne.printStackTrace(); } try { ctx.createSubcontext("foo/two"); } catch( NameAlreadyBoundException ne ) { ne.printStackTrace(); } ctx.rebind("foo/two/Date", viewDate); ctx.rebind("foo/two/Calendar", viewCalendar); After startup, all of the entries registered under "foo/one" by the MBean are there. After calling the EJB date-setter, foo has a "two" with the correct children, but "one" and its children no longer exist. No exception is triggered. (An obvious workaround is to reverse the logic and expect a NameNotFoundException if the name is not bound -- probably more efficient anyway) Still, the behavior described above is contrary to the API which states that a NameAlreadyBoundException should be thrown. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=376685&aid=459387&group_id=22866 _______________________________________________ Jboss-development mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-development
