Issue

• One EJB injects a reference to another EJB which in turn injects a reference back to the first EJB This results in that the EJB container can't resolve the dependency relationship and therefore the deployment fails.
  Error in server log "DEPLOYMENTS MISSING DEPENDENCIES"

DEPLOYMENTS MISSING DEPENDENCIES:
  Deployment "jboss.j2ee:ear=Test.ear,jar=ejbJAR.jar,name=Test,service=EJB3" is missing the following dependencies:
    Dependency "<UNKNOWN jboss.j2ee:ear=Test.ear,jar=ejbJAR.jar,name=Test,service=EJB3>" (should be in state "Installed", but is actually in state "** UNRESOLVED Demands 'jndi:Test/TestBean/aaa.bbb.TestLocal' **")

• The code is something like following:

@Stateless
public class TestBean implements TestLocal {
    @EJB
    TestLocal self;
