Hi,
  I was looking for a way to get the ejb3 beans registered in jndi
under the name a user provides in the mappedName attribute of the

@Stateless ,@Stateful annotations . One way that David told me to give

custom jndi names was to set the jndi-name as deployment-id via the

jndi name configuration property and then give custom deployment ids. However suppose the user wants a way to set a custom mappedName in the annotation and that should be the jndi name. On looking at the code I find that we are not processing for the mappedName. If this is so then

I think that we should be processing the mapped name so that a user
can also specify that as a part of auto created deployment ids like
shown below.

eg:
openejb.jndiname.format={deploymentId}

openejb.deploymentId.format={mappedName}

I wonder if we shouldn't just cut out the middle man and let the mappedName be used as a jndiname format.

So I could have an annotation like @Stateless(mappedName="{deploymenId}/Whatever")?

Right, something like that.

Also possible:

@Stateless(mappedName="{interfaceClass}")
@Stateless(mappedName="{ejbName}/{interfaceClass}")

etc.
