[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-1269?page=comments#action_12314532 ] Scott M Stark commented on JBAS-1269: -------------------------------------
Give me a list of every context in which an ejb toString method may be called and I think that attempting this will make it clear why this is not practical. Unless the spec dictates where toString cannot be called, its fair game in any context and usage of methods which have clearly excluded context should either not be used, or guarded against. > toString called on EJB > ---------------------- > > Key: JBAS-1269 > URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBAS-1269 > Project: JBoss Application Server > Type: Bug > Components: EJBs > Versions: JBossAS-4.0.1 Final > Environment: Linux, J2SE 1.4.2_06 > Reporter: Michael Lipp > Assignee: Scott M Stark > Priority: Critical > > > org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.CachedConnectionManager calls toString() > on EJBs (e.g. line 250, where "rawKey" is an EJB. > The "toString()" method of an EJB may, however, be overwritten, as is > appropriate for the type of EJB.
