Env: JBoss 4.2.2 GA EJB 3 JDK 1.5.0.15

I have a jar with version 0 inside ear in lib folder. It is available to all 
the web and ejb modules. If I want to use higher version in web module I simple 
put new jar in WEB-INF/lib folder and it works fine. I am unable to do the same 
for ejb module. If I put a different version of jar inside ejb module it will 
not be loaded by jboss. It will use the jar in ear/lib folder only. It loads 
jar in ejb module fine if I delete the jar in ear/lib folder.

Is there a way I can use one version of jar in ear/lib folder and another 
version inside ejb module? 

I like the class loading scheme for web modules. It loads web module specific 
jars first without worrying about already loaded jars and if not found then it 
will look to the parent. Makes perfect sense. Web module can choose to use 
already existing version or use a new updated one with no effect on other 
modules. 

This does not work for ejb modules. It will first check if a jar is already 
loaded and use the same if alreday loaded. If it is not loaded then it will 
check if it exists in ejb module itself. It is forced to use the jar if it is 
loaded by classloader. It cannot use a better/different version of jar if it 
wants. So basically all ejb modules are forced to use the jar version in 
ear/lib folder.

Is there a work around or am I simply missing something.

Thanks a lot
Ravi
