I'm using openejb-core 4.0.0-beta-1 for my test cases. I was using @javax.annotation.ManagedBean but i haven't managed to get it to work yet. I'll keep trying tomorrow though.
I was aware that creating and destroying an EJBContainer per test case removed the need for any annotations such as @ManagedBean or @LocalClient but it also slows down the test case execution significantly. I only have stateless ejbs and so don't need to recreate the container for each test case class. I do have a DataSource resource created in the ejb container but i blow away and rebuild the schema and repopulate it with data before each test case rather than recreating the entire embedded ejb container. Now that I have this working using @LocalClient, my test cases run significantly faster, so i'm happy with the outcome. I still wish it was possible to inject using the @Inject annotation. After reading your reply saying @Inject should be possible, i retested it but it doesn't work. Nothing gets injected and i end up with NullPointerExceptions. I'm sure there's a very good reason you can't inject into any class instance that isn't annotated with @LocalClient or @ManagedBean . Could anyone tell me what it is because its something i've found myself wanting to do on a couple of occasions now but always get thwarted by the "could not find meta data" exception. For example, i created a Servlet test case using HttpUnit and i wanted to inject ejbs from an embedded tomee container into an instance of a servlet that i created, but couldn't. -- View this message in context: http://openejb.979440.n4.nabble.com/Injection-fails-in-any-class-that-didn-t-instantiate-an-embedded-ejb-container-tp4396189p4397059.html Sent from the OpenEJB User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
