your own objects, they're not managed and you can't expect injection. If you
get it from a container or other lookup store, then that's another story.

Indeed, the thing is that the main class in a client application is really the
only place where a class is loaded and a method is called by the runtime, so
this also basically makes it the only candidate for an injection target.
Unless, you would accept to run your application in a modified JVM where the
new operator is somehow intercepted by the client container. Personally I
wouldn't mind that, but I guess a lot of people would object to that.

I'm not sure if it's really limiting. The idea seems to be to separate your
application code from details of where the AS is located. If you inject your
main class with a factory EJB that serves to give you other EJBs at any
location in your client code that you desire, than I don't really see the
problem with that.
Something like:
| public class MainClass {
|
| @EJB
| public EJBFactory factory;
|
| public static void main(String args[]) {
| MyApp theApp = new MyApp();
| theApp.run();
| }
| }
|
| ...
|
| public class SomeClass {
|
| public void SomeMethod() {
| EJBFooBean bean = MainClass.factory.getEJBFooBean();
| bean.invokeBar(); // results in RMI class to AS
| }
| }
|
There's always room for improvement of course, and being able to use @EJB
EJBFooBean in SomeClass would be superb, but for the time being the pattern
shown above seems to do the trick.
