Properties place holder ignored when used inside annotations ie in @ActivationConfigProperty
Issue
I have an MDB that consumes messages on a remote Hornet Queue. I used to declare JMS activation config properties in deployment descriptor using an indirection to an externally defined property like this:
<activation-config-property>
<activation-config-property-name>JndiParams</activation-config-property-name>
<activation-config-property-value>${Arte.TestJMS1.JndiParams}</activation-config-property-value>
</activation-config-property>
Now we are migrating the application to EJB3. When I do the same usage of indirection within the annotation @ActivationConfigProperty the deployment of the application fails.
I was expecting to be able to use expression language properties within annotations but it does not work.
Could you please let me know how can I use indirection within annotations?
