Juan,
I don't think that is quite right. If access to the bean's environment is
allowed, surely you should be able to access EJB References (or EJB Local
References) defined therein.
The spec says that access to the bean's environment is allowed, and does
state that nothing specific to that EJB's object identity can be done. This
is reasonable given that you do not know that instance's identity at that
point in time. It also states that you cannot access CMR fields from the
setEntityContext. But EJB Home (or Local Home) references registered in
the ENC definitely do not fall under this category.
I think this would be a bug in Orion . . . and would be very curious if
another [certified] AppServer exhibited the same behavior. In fact, if you
take a look at some of the Sun tutorials and articles, you'd notice that
many one-off initializations are done within the set{Session|Entity}Context
method.
