remote and local interface

Hi,

I am a newbie to EJB and sorry if I am asking stupid question.

I implemented an EJB with both local and remote interface. When trying
create an EJB from another EJB, I lookup the JNDI name and I check the class
of the object returned. I found that the object class is of the remote type
rather the local. Therefore causing a casting exception when calling
PortableRemoteObject.narrow().

My question is, with only one JNDI name specified by the deployerment
descripter, how can I distinguish which interface I want to get?

TIA.
SF

Obviously, you must make sure that both local and remote proxies are
bound to the JNDI directory. In Weblogic, there's something like

<weblogic-enterprise-bean>
[...]
<jndi-name>BlaSettings</jndi-name>
<local-jndi-name>BlaSettingsLocal</local-jndi-name>
</weblogic-enterprise-bean>

so you could get the local EJB proxy by

BlaSettingsLocalHome home = (BlaSettingsLocalHome)
ctxt.lookup("ejb/BlaSettingsLocal");
