Marc,
I believe I have done this. I have many ejb-ref's some in the same jar and
several in the other jars there are no complains deploying the beans where the
ejb-ref points to a bean in the same .jar Of course I might be making some
sort of XML error, but as I say the beans/refs local to the jar seem to deploy
ok.
For instance here is a snippet of the jboss.xml for the orders.jar file it
references other beans as you see but it only complains about CustomerEnt
which is in a different jar.
<entity>
<ejb-name>OrderEnt</ejb-name>
<jndi-name>OrderEnt</jndi-name>
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/CustomerEnt</ejb-ref-name>
<jndi-name>CustomerEnt</jndi-name>
</ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/LargeOrderSes</ejb-ref-name>
<jndi-name>LargeOrderSes</jndi-name>
</ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/ItemEnt</ejb-ref-name>
<jndi-name>ItemEnt</jndi-name>
</ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref>
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/ItemEnt</ejb-ref-name>
<jndi-name>ItemEnt</jndi-name>
</ejb-ref>
</entity>
thanks
