How to force openEJB to ignore mappedName and use openejb.jndiname.format instead

I have an EJB:

@Stateless(mappedName = "MetadataFacade")
public class MetadataFacade implements MetadataFacadeRemote {

and openEJB configured using:

-Dopenejb.jndiname.format={ejbClass.simpleName}#{interfaceClass}

When embedded openEJB is starting it ignores the openejb.jndiname.format option and creates incorrect JNDI name:

INFO   info, Jndi(name=MetadataFacade) --> Ejb(deployment-id=MetadataFacade)

How can I configure it to use the openejb.jndiname.format option and create JNDI name similar to:

MetadataFacade#my.package.MetadataFacadeRemote

If openEJB can not do it, I would be thankful for any workaround.

Solution

Since the described use case is not supported, I have created a patch

which disables the original behaviour and instead adds a new variable ejbClass.mappedName which can be used in openejb.jndiname.format.

The patch is for the head (revision 1034599) of:

 http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openejb/tags/openejb-3.1.4

Apply it to sources root using:

patch -p0 -i mappedName.patch

then build openEJB using:

mvn -Dmaven.{test,itest}.skip -Dassemble clean install

and add

to your classpath as the first entry.
