I dont know if the custom injection is flexible enough.I need to be able to

injection mechanism? If I use the openejb embedded in tomcat, you think it is possible to plugin the ObjectFactory in the tomcat jndi and look it up
from a openejb session bean?

We've coded up the tomcat integration to be able to support that. So if you add an ObjectFactory to Tomcat, OpenEJB will pick it up and add it like it was an <Resource> declaration in the openejb.xml file.

So if you had a META-INF/context.xml file in your webbapp for Tomcat like the following:

<Context>
  <Resource
      name="resourcebean"
      auth="Container"
      type="org.superbiz.servlet.ResourceBean"
      factory="org.apache.naming.factory.BeanFactory"
      value="ContextResource"/>
</Context>

You should be able to have it injected like so:

  @Resource ResourceBean byBean;

Let us know if that does or doesn't work. We need more examples of this.

As a side question, are you currently doing something like this in Tomcat now or are you looking for a more general purpose "define objects in xml and inject them" solution? We've had some ideas in this area.

How can one configure a custom resource factory(implementation of the javax.naming.spi.ObjectFactory interface). The custom resource factory
should be injectable into a stateless.

We don't have anything for pluging in an
javax.naming.spi.ObjectFactory, but we do have the ability for you to
plug in your own java.beans.PropertyEditor and have custom resources
injected that way.

See this example for details:
