While I have not used it, the Spring Framework provides strategies for defining Spring Beans which are EJB factories (or something like that.) Struts 2 works quite nicely using Spring as the Action Factory, which can take care of resolving all Action dependencies whether or not they are EJBs.
See http://cwiki.apache.org/S2PLUGINS/spring-plugin.html for more on using Spring as your object factory and this Spring documentation on EJBs: http://www.springframework.org/docs/reference/ejb.html Hope that helps. Joe On 1/22/07, Paris Apostolopoulos <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi again. Ian thank you for your reply. If I understood well, please pardon me...if it is wrong the following you said 1) implement your custom ejb3 annotations into struts ok I wonder the @EJB annotations are not going to work (I guess). I had a look @ some glassfish FAQ.. 2)Then implement Struts interceptors that are going to do the JNDI lookup?right? I have to admit I am bit confused My first attempt was to implement the classical ServiceLocator Pattern and stick it with delegates, though the pattern does not fit well with EJB3. Any hint from the Struts team ..is there any intention to implement that kind of support to Struts (Struts 2+ EJB3) integration? Or do you know any other extention project that is targeting this way..maybe we could contribute. At the moment this kind of problem does not make me fee confortable, I am a great Struts supporter(picked Struts as the web framework for our new j2ee web app) and its a pitty EJB3.0 is targeted towards either plain servlets or JSF for Dependency Injection etc etc. Any more hints if possible would be much appreciated!
