Local annotation interfaces

[Joe Harry]

Guys,

I have the following EJB defined:

@Local(value = { AccountManager.class, AccountService.class })
public class AccountManagerImpl implements AccountManager, Manager {

In my Local annotation, I specify the interfaces. But in reality, the AccountService is a super interface of AccountManager. Do I need to have the AccountService as well in my implements clause? I think it is superflous. But what does the EJB spec says?

Ideally, you should use EJB only via its interfaces. I think that AccountManager is sufficient.
