Hi, For the class visibility, it is a little ambiguous for the app client. The client applications should not have access to ejb jar files in the ear file, I would suggest to use a common jar file, and share that for ejb and client application.
You may refer to Java EE 6 Spec, EE 8.3.3 Hope it helps. 2013/7/15 Putter, S.M.J. de <s.m.j.d.put...@student.tue.nl> > Dear all, > > > > I get a DeploymentException when trying to deploy an ear file. > > The ear file is setup as follows: > > > > - META-INF/MANIFEST.MF > > - BI3_Remote-client.jar > > - BI3_Remote-ejb.jar > > > > For brevity, I will refer to BI3_Remote-client.jar as client.jar and to > BI3_Remote-ejb.jar as ejb.jar. > > > > Client.jar refers to ejb.jar via its manifest through ClassPath. > > Ejb.jar has a bean implementing the BI3_RemoteInterface remote business > interface.
