在记住我已经阅读了 META-INF /服务需要显式导入。因此，客户端的module.xml需要 services = import ，现在看起来像这样：

C： \eclipse\项目\HelloWorldSlSB-Client\rt\modules\test\Helloworld\client\main\module.xml：

 <？xml version = 1.0 encoding = ISO-8859-1？> 
< module xmlns = urn：jboss：module：1.1 name = test.helloworld.client> 
< main-class name = test.helloworld.client.HelloWorldEmbeddedEjbTestClient /> 

<资源> 
< resource-root path = HelloWorldSlSB-Client.jar /> 
< / resources> 

<依赖关系> 
< module name = javax.api /> 
< module name = javax.ejb.api /> 
< module name = org.jboss.as.embedded services = import /> 
< module name = org.jboss.logmanager /> 
< module name = test.helloworld /> 
< / dependencies> 
< / module> 
 

此外，一条错误消息告诉我设置系统属性 java.util。 logging.manager 到 org.jboss.logmanager.LogManager ，所以我添加了相应的 -D VM参数。然后出现 ClassNotFoundException：org.jboss.logmanager.LogManager ，所以我在上面添加了logmanager依赖项。

只放 createEJBContainer Map参数中的EJB jar不足以使客户端看到它，因此看来EJB也必须是客户端可以显式依赖的模块（<模块名称= test.helloworld /> ）。因此，我将HelloWorld-API.jar和HelloWorld-EJB.jar移至目录 modulePath / test / helloworld / main /（即C：\eclipse\projects\HelloWorldSlSB-Client\rt＼） ＼modules\test\helloworld\main），相应地更改了 new File（ ./ HelloWorld-EJB.jar）中的路径，并添加了一个模块。 xml：

C：eclipse\projects\HelloWorldSlSB-Client\rt\modules\test\Helloworld\main\module .xml：

 <？xml version = 1.0 encoding = ISO-8859-1？> 
< module xmlns = urn：jboss：module：1.1 name = test.helloworld> 
< resources> 
< resource-root path = HelloWorld-API.jar /> 
< resource-root path = HelloWorld-EJB.jar /> 
< / resources> 
< / module> 
 

我删除了 test / helloworld / api / HelloWorld.class 从EJB jar中。

找到了一个更简单的工作调用，仍然使用 org.jboss.modules.Main ，但是部署了EJB，因为我们很可能将其用于非嵌入式用途，并且不需要module.xml文件。现在，无参数 createEJBContainer（）就足够了，因为我在 -cp 参数中包含了EJB jar。 。

剩余问题

• 如果有人知道s如何在不运行org.jboss.modules.Main的情况下直接调用。我仍然想知道。


• 仍然非常欢迎文档链接。


• UserTransaction / JDBC问题

BTW，也许有足够声誉的人可以添加诸如jboss-modules之类的标签？ p>

I'm trying out embeddable JBoss with the EJBContainer.createEJBContainer API described in the spec (JSR 318: Enterprise JavaBeans, Version 3.1, ch. 22: Embeddable Usage), not any of the various predecessors using JBoss specific APIs.

Overview

• When i invoke my main method normally, a session bean invocation succeeds. But there seem to be some classloading issues, because the JNDI object at "java:jboss/UserTransaction" cannot be cast to javax.transaction.UserTransaction.
• So i guess the classloading magic of JBoss Modules is required here. With my attempts at that, createEJBContainer does not find any EJBContainerProviders and throws an EJBException.

Note that not all my questions require reading all subsequent details. So if this is too much to read, please have a look at the questions section nevertheless. Thanks!

Environment

JBoss AS 7.1.1.Final (jboss-as-7.1.1.Final.zip with only logging conf changed in standalone.xml)
(Initially JBoss EAP 6.0.1 GA which is the actual target environment - same problem)
Oracle JDK 1.7.0_11
Windows 7 Prof 64 bit

Details

The stateless session bean

package test.helloworld.impl;

import javax.ejb.Remote;
import javax.ejb.Stateless;
import test.helloworld.api.HelloWorld;

@Stateless
@Remote(HelloWorld.class)
public class HelloWorldBean implements HelloWorld
{
    @Override
    public String salute()
    {
        return "Hello, world";
    }
}

package test.helloworld.api;

public interface HelloWorld
{
    String salute();
}

            status = 0;
        }
        catch (Throwable e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace(System.err);
            System.err.flush();
        }
        finally
        {
            // Simply returning from main leaves some thread (and
            // hence the JVM) running for another 60s, so force exit
            System.exit(status);
        }
    }


    private static void main() throws Exception

the EJB invocation succeeds, but JNDI object "java:jboss/UserTransaction" cannot be cast to javax.transaction.UserTransaction:

(Looks a little strange, because the exception is caught and printed at the end of main. But of course, it happens before the container is closed.)

The debugger shows that the JNDI object's getClass().getClassLoader() is org.jboss.modules.ModuleClassLoader
ModuleClassLoader for Module "org.jboss.jboss-transaction-spi:main" from local module loader @4b436982 (roots: c:\java\jboss-as-7\modules)
and its getClass().getInterfaces()[0] /* == interface javax.transaction.UserTransaction */.getClassLoader() is
ModuleClassLoader for Module "javax.transaction.api:main" from local module loader @4b436982 (roots: c:\java\jboss-as-7\modules)
However, UserTransaction.class.getClassLoader() is of type sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.

jboss-modules.jar invocation

Invoked via org.jboss.modules.Main.main (i.e. what java -jar jboss-modules.jar also does) with classpath

C:\java\jboss-as-7\jboss-modules.jar

system properties as above, and arguments

-mp "C:\java\jboss-as-7\modules;C:\eclipse\projects\HelloWorldSlSB-Client\rt\modules"
test.helloworld.client

it fails already in createEJBContainer:

javax.ejb.EJBException: Unable to instantiate container with factories []

Debugging shows that this happens because in method EJBContainer.findAllFactories(), no resources "META-INF/services/javax.ejb.spi.EJBContainerProvider" are found in the thread context classloader, which is
ModuleClassLoader for Module "test.helloworld.client:main" from local module loader @1afec586 (roots: C:\java\jboss-as-7\modules,C:\eclipse\projects\HelloWorldSlSB-Client\rt\modules)

Questions

• Does anyone know how to fix this or has gotten anything similar to work?
• Is a normal JBoss installation the right starting point, or do i need a specific embeddable variant?
• Is UserTransaction even supposed to be usable in the embeddable scenario?
  • If it is, does that mean i could also use one XA datasource for both JPA 2 CMT entities and legacy JDBC code? And both could participate in the same transaction (e.g. JDBC code starts tx with java.sql.Connection.setAutoCommit(false), then calls EJB with TransactionAttributeType.REQUIRED)?
• Can someone point me to some documentation? All i find is about the older stuff with JBoss specific API, not the standard EJB 3.1 way.
  • Preferably, documentation how to use without any test frameworks, since i'm evaluating this for production use.

Thanks for reading all (or part of :-) this!

I found the solution for the JBoss Modules way, after remembering that i had read that META-INF/services need to be imported explicitly. So, the client's module.xml needs a services="import" and now looks like this:

C:\eclipse\projects\HelloWorldSlSB-Client\rt\modules\test\helloworld\client\main\module.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="test.helloworld.client">
    <main-class name="test.helloworld.client.HelloWorldEmbeddedEjbTestClient"/>

    <resources>
        <resource-root path="HelloWorldSlSB-Client.jar"/>
    </resources>

    <dependencies>
        <module name="javax.api"/>
        <module name="javax.ejb.api"/>
        <module name="org.jboss.as.embedded" services="import"/>
        <module name="org.jboss.logmanager"/>
        <module name="test.helloworld"/>
    </dependencies>
</module>

Besides, an error message told me to set system property java.util.logging.manager to org.jboss.logmanager.LogManager, so i added a corresponding -D VM argument. Then came ClassNotFoundException: org.jboss.logmanager.LogManager, so i added the logmanager dependency above.

Only putting the EJB jar into the createEJBContainer Map argument was not sufficient for the client to see it, so it seems the EJB must also be a module which the client can explicitely depend on (<module name="test.helloworld"/> above). So i moved HelloWorld-API.jar and HelloWorld-EJB.jar to directory modulePath/test/helloworld/main/ (i.e. C:\eclipse\projects\HelloWorldSlSB-Client\rt\modules\test\helloworld\main), changed the path in new File("./HelloWorld-EJB.jar") accordingly, and added a module.xml for them:

C:\eclipse\projects\HelloWorldSlSB-Client\rt\modules\test\helloworld\main\module.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.1" name="test.helloworld">
    <resources>
        <resource-root path="HelloWorld-API.jar"/>
        <resource-root path="HelloWorld-EJB.jar"/>
    </resources>
</module>

I removed test/helloworld/api/HelloWorld.class from the EJB jar. Not necessary, but maybe cleaner.

Edit 2013-02-27: Found a simpler working invocation, still using org.jboss.modules.Main, but with the EJB deployed as we'll probably do for the non-embedded use and no module.xml files required. And the no-arg createEJBContainer() is now sufficient, as i included the EJB jar in the -cp argument instead.

Remaining questions

• If someone knows how to get the direct invocation without org.jboss.modules.Main running, i'd still like to know.
• Documentation links are still very welcome.
• The UserTransaction / JDBC question

BTW, maybe someone with enough reputation could add a tag like jboss-modules?
