Description

I have an @Singleton bean also annotated @Startup. The singleton is startin gup and it is accessible to other @ManagedBeans that inject the singleton using @EJB.

@Startup
@Singleton
@ConcurrencyManagement(BEAN)
public class Factory {
private EntityManagerFactory emf = null;
private EntityManager entityManager = null;
etc.

and

@ManagedBean(name = "Credentials")
@SessionScoped
public class Credentials {
private User user = null;
private String username;
private String password;
private String company;
private String verification = null;
private boolean loggedIn = false;
private InitialContext initialcontext = null;
@EJB
private Factory factory;

public Credentials() {}
etc.

work fine: the @EJB resolves the reference to my factory object/singleton. In the same WAR I have an entity bean defined as below and the @EJB doesnt work.

@Entity
@Table(name="user_table")
@ManagedBean(name = "User")
@RequestScoped
public class User extends Particle {
private long uuid = 0;
@Id
private long csid = 0;
@EJB
private Factory factory;
etc.

I've added an Entity bean to the singleton example and get the same results
