How should MessageReceiver be invoked

[Hasalaka Waravita]

Hi
Im trying to use Axis2 to do an EJB invocation. My approach is to plug transport senders/receivers and introduce a Message Receiver for EJB invocation.
In Axis2 MessageReceivers are triggered on engine.receive() at server side. My problem is, I cannot run Axis2 on server side (Its not a WebServer, but an Appserver I'm calling, I don't want to convert request into SOAP/HTTP due overhead ).
I can obviously  call  engine.receive() from transport, hence calling AxisEngine within the same JVM and achieve what I want.
But is there an elegant way of doing this ? Your suggestions are highly appreciated.
Thanks
