Hello!
On the project I'm working on, we have several EJBs that constitute the main
application ("core" from now one). We also have other EJBs that contain
business logic ("add-ons" from now on). We are using
JBoss2.4.6_Tomcat-4.0.3.
One of the EJBs on the core has code to dinamically call EJBs on the
add-ons. The core EJB reads from a XML file the name of the add-on class,
the method and necessary parameters and calls it.
The purpose of the application includes adding new add-on EJBs and call them
just by adding entries to the configuration XML file (that is not deployed,
it resides on the $JBOSS_DIS/conf/<project-name> directory).
Now we have a problem. We are packing the core EJBs and add-on EJBs on the
same .ear. We want to break up this in to applications and deploy them
separatly. So that more add-on EJBs can be deployed without having to
redeploy the core. But we are facing a problem...
The descriptor of the core EJB that makes the dynamic invocations seems to
need the <ejb-ref> tag for each one of the add-on EJBs. So, adding a new EJB
to the add-on group would always force us to redeploy the core module with
the new descriptor.
Is this really necessary? Is there any way we can deploy core with no
ejb-refs and make core know about the new EJBs as we deploy them?
I thank you for reading my question. Hope to hear from you.
