Hi Paul,
ejb is not allowed to get reference to default/current class loader? why is it so?
my idea is to define helper classes for Stateful/Stateless Session Bean and load and call the method dynamically...
i am confused about this limitation!
also what does it mean when ejb is not allowed to define new class??
thank you,
Praveen

Class loader is JVM dependent object and thus it should not be used in EJB as you might have to deploy EJBs in different JVMs developed by different vendors with different implementation.
You might consider the alternative that looking up the class/object via JNDI while the class/object is created during the container starts up.
