How to inject a Session Bean into a Message Driven Bean?

Question

I\'m reasonably new to Java EE, so this might be stupid.. bear with me pls :D

I would like to inject a stateless session bean into a message-driven bean. Basically,

Answer 1

Could you try to define things like this:

@Remote
public interface TestBeanRemote {

  public void doSomething();
}

@Stateless(name="TestBeanRemote")
public class TestBean implements TestBeanRemote {

  public void doSomething() {
    // business logic goes here
  }
}

And then in the MDB:

@MessageDriven(mappedName = "jms/mvs.TestController", activationConfig =  {
@ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName = "acknowledgeMode", propertyValue = "Auto-acknowledge"),
@ActivationConfigProperty(propertyName = "destinationType", propertyValue = "javax.jms.Queue")
    })
public class TestController implements MessageListener {

    @EJB(beanName="TestBeanRemote")
    private TestBeanRemote testBean;

    public TestController() {
    }

    public void onMessage(Message message) {
      testBean.doSomething();
    }
}

If this work, I'll try to provide an explanation :)
