question about calling a no-ejb class's method in ejb method

[liang sun]

I call a no-ejb class's method in ejb method,

import a.wu;
.....
public void bean_method()
{
wu k=new wu();
k.show();
}
..........
complie success,but in runTIME, throws
java.rmi.RemoteException: EJB Exception: ;
nested exception is: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: a/wu��
( NOTE: you must konw classpath of Class a.wu have already been set,complie success )

It doesn't matter that you can compile the class -- that's a different classpath.
Make sure that your a.wu class is included inside the EJB JAR file along with your EJB classes and it should work fine.

Need some more information on how wu is available in the deployed version.
Do you put it in the classpath of the application server? Alternatively you can use a J2EE application.
The following references might help:

I think when you are not sure that your class is in the servers classpath, put your class in the lib of server or the directory where server classes are located.it should work..
