JBoss6 AS EJB3StandaloneBootstrap & EJB3StandaloneDeployer

Question

Hi,

currently i'am migrating a JBoss 4 project to JBoss 6. I do miss substitutes for the EJB3StandaloneDeployer and EJB3StandaloneBootstrap.

Are there any new sources which deliver the functionality of this two classes?

My guess is that EJB3StandaloneDeployer and EJB3StandaloneBootstrap are replaced by the standard EJBContainer API. Here is an example:

// Instantiate an embeddable EJB container and search the
// JVM class path for eligible EJB modules or directories
EJBContainer ejbC = EJBContainer.createEJBContainer();

// Get a naming context for session bean lookups
Context ctx = ejbC.getNamingContext();

// Retrieve a reference to the AccountBean using a
// portable global JNDI name (more on this later!)  
AccountBean ab = (AccountBean) 
    ctx.lookup("java:global/account/AccountBean");

// Test the account
Account a1 = ab.createAccount(1234);

...

// Shutdown the embeddable container
ejbC.close();    

JBoss also started the Arquillian that you might find interesting.
