[JBoss-user] Two ears and classcastexception :( please, help!!

[<fxj...@ya...>]

Hi all,

I'm trying to get one application inside an .ear to use beans inside another
.ear.

On both ear's I'm using custom class loader through the <loader-repository> tag
in jboss-app.xml.

On both ears, in their application.xml I expose a jar containing the ejb
interfaces using the <module> tag.

The problem is that when I try to call a getHome in one ear, it throws
classcastexception when trying to call narrow method in PortableRemoteObject
class.


Am I doing something wrong?

I'm sure the classcastexception is generated because of the different class
loaders.  I read the JBOSS admin guide in the section about classloaders and 
indeed I did a modification in the code which calls the narrow method and I
could check they are from different classloaders.

what I get from calling narrow is this:

org.jboss.mx.loading.UnifiedClassLoader3@e85a35{
url=file:/opt/jboss-3.2.3/server/default/tmp/deploy/tmp43175corporativo.ear
,addedOrder=45}

what I get from the ear calling the get home is this:

org.jboss.mx.loading.UnifiedClassLoader3@185c59c{
url=file:/opt/jboss-3.2.3/server/default/tmp/deploy/tmp43176temis.ear
,addedOrder=46}


I can see that the class loaders are in fact different. But from my two
disparate ears!



I mean, I thought if I used custom classloaders, it would not be visible by
other applications in other classloaders.

Am I missing something?

What can I do to solve that?

Please, help me. I'm desperate! :)

Thanks in advance.
