See the Alternate Descriptors page for the full details of how this feature works.
For our example we'll use the standard "moviefun" code which contains a Movie entity and Movies session bean. To add a twist
for testing and demonstrate alternate descriptors, we will create an interceptor that will be used only in our test cases.
To add this to our application, we simply need a test.ejb-jar.xml in the same location that the regular ejb-jar.xml would be expected.
That gives us the following files in our project:
The normal ejb-jar.xml simply contains <ejb-jar/>, however the test.ejb-jar.xml we add an extra interceptor:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<ejb-jar xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee">
<assembly-descriptor>
<interceptor-binding>
<ejb-name>Movies</ejb-name>
<interceptor-class>org.superbiz.altdd.MoviesTest$Interceptor</interceptor-class>
</interceptor-binding>
</assembly-descriptor>
</ejb-jar>
To enable our test.ejb-jar.xml in the test case, we simply set the openejb.altdd.prefix property when creating the embedded EJBContainer
public class MoviesTest extends TestCase {
@EJB
private Movies movies;
@Resource
private UserTransaction userTransaction;
@PersistenceContext
private EntityManager entityManager;
public void setUp() throws Exception {
Properties p = new Properties();
p.put("movieDatabase", "new://Resource?type=DataSource");
p.put("movieDatabase.JdbcDriver", "org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver");
p.put("movieDatabase.JdbcUrl", "jdbc:hsqldb:mem:moviedb");
p.put("openejb.altdd.prefix", "test");
EJBContainer.createEJBContainer(p).getContext().bind("inject", this);
}
public void test() throws Exception {
userTransaction.begin();
try {
entityManager.persist(new Movie("Quentin Tarantino", "Reservoir Dogs", 1992));
entityManager.persist(new Movie("Joel Coen", "Fargo", 1996));
entityManager.persist(new Movie("Joel Coen", "The Big Lebowski", 1998));
List<Movie> list = movies.getMovies();
assertEquals("List.size()", 3, list.size());
for (Movie movie : list) {
movies.deleteMovie(movie);
}
assertEquals("Movies.getMovies()", 0, movies.getMovies().size());
} finally {
try {
userTransaction.commit();
fail("Transaction should have been rolled back");
} catch (RollbackException e) {
// Good, we don't want to clean up the db
}
}
}
public static class Interceptor {
@Resource
private SessionContext sessionContext;
@AroundInvoke
public Object invoke(InvocationContext context) throws Exception {
sessionContext.setRollbackOnly();
return context.proceed();
}
}
}
As noted in the documentation, several prefixes can be used at once.

If you split your descriptors into separate directories, this support will not work. Specifically, this will not work:
This support is not aware of any Maven, Gradle, Ant, IntelliJ, NetBeans, Eclipse or other settings.
