Hello,

first: Sorry for crossposting to the users- and the ejb-list, but I was not shure about the correct list because there is very low traffic on the ejb-list.

I have the following problem:

I made two beans for glassfish: one with annotations and only two classes (Bean2 and Bean2Impl) and the other one with a deployment-descriptor and three classes (SimpleBeanHome, SimpleBean and SimpleBeanImpl). I deployed these classes in two different EAR-files.

I made a client first talking to the EJB3-bean and then to the EJB2-bean. The first connection works well, the second connection gives to following exception:

java.lang.ClassCastException: com.webage.ejbs._SimpleBeanHome_DynamicStub cannot be cast to com.webage.ejbs.SimpleBean at com.webage.client.TestClient.runTest(TestClient.java:25) at com.webage.client.TestClient.main(TestClient.java:33)

Has anyone an idea for a solution or an example?

Thank you for your help!

Martin
