My guess
You cannot create a Thread object from an EJB. This is why you get
ClassCastException because the Thread class cannot be in the namespace.
Calling run will act as just a standard method.

Subject: Bug /w multithreading+EJB?
Hey
Possible bug:
We have a EntityBean. We first call create, and then invoke a method on
the newly created instance. We then spawn off a thread that calls
another method on the bean. From this second call in the newly created
thread we get the following error msg:
java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.Thread
at EntityBeanWrapper0.doSomething(EntityBeanWrapper0.java:xxx
at web.MyServlet$1.run(MyServlet.java:xxx)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:479)
We accidentally called run() and not start() on the thread first, and
then it worked. When we did it "the right way" it stopped working with
the above situation.
Any clues?
/Rickard
