    How can I configure a @Service bean externally

    david_b

      Hi all,

       

      I've developed a JBoss service using the @Service annotation. I've now come to the point where I need to configure the service for different deployments. Usually I'd use resource injection and env-entries in the ejb-jar.xml file, but this doesn't seem to be supported for service beans.

       

      I've found a rather old feature request for adding this support:

      https://issues.jboss.org/browse/EJBTHREE-801

       

      Assuming this still isn't available, I have a couple of questions.

       

      Is there a good alternative to the ejb-jar file that will work in a clustered environment? Something better than a properties file?

       

      Is there an alternative to the @Service annotation that provides the same functionality (singleton statefull session bean) and supports configuraiton through the ejb-jar file?

       

      I'm using JBoss AS 6 and EJB 3.1.

       

      Any help would be appreciated.

       

      David
