RE: Using Controls in an EJB

Yes, that is what I was referring to.  In this case, trying
to make this
work in EJBs is likely preferable to implementing a second
(non-beehive)
client for the Web Service.

Hi Ben,

Unfortunately, there's no support in Beehive for
calling/using
controls from within EJBs. I'm not the expert on this but I
think the
problem is that there's no way of hooking in to initialize
the
container context, like can be done with a Servlet Filter
for calling
controls from a Servlet or JSP.

Was the email you're referring to about using the
ControlTestContainerContext to instantiate a control in a
POJO?
Maybe...
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox
/beehive-user/200608.mbox/%3Ceca
a4efd0608040808x1b83c3e4i910450d56c73fc3dmail.gmail.com%3E
I don't think this is supported though and may be very
difficult to
make work for EJBs.

Kind regards,
Carlin
