Strategies for dealing with circular references between two modules

2002-12-13 Thread Karr, David
This is sort of an "ant" question, and sort of an "ejb" question, but sort of not either. It's a build problem related to EJB/JMS. I have a situation where I have two module directories in an application, where one module is a JMS client of the other, and they reverse roles for EJB calls (read
