- Specify the module dependency at the descriptor from the caller.
- Add the dependency where the interface are located
Module Dependency
By default, Java EE deployment units (jars, ejb-jars, wars, ears-and-their-contents) are isolated from each other. In other words, classes in one deployment unit do not have access to classes in other deployment units.
If your EJBs and interfaces are packaged in a jar named
sample-engine-ejb-1.0.jar
, then you can make the classes in this jar accessible to your web application by adding a WEB-INF/jboss-deployment-structure.xml
file to it with the following content:xml version="1.0"?>
<jboss-deployment-structure xmlns="urn:jboss:deployment-structure:1.3">
<deployment>
<dependencies>
<module name="deployment.sample-engine-ejb-1.0.jar" />
</dependencies>
</deployment>
</jboss-deployment-structure>
Maven Dependency
Caller needs to have access to the EJB local interface to cast the instance of the EJB.
