EJB3 client code swallows exceptions making it difficult to track down issues

      • Use the ejb-remote quikstart
      • create a class

      • add a new SLSB method with this class as parameter and call it

      The current retry mechanism swallow the underlying Exception in case of Serialization problems. See EJBInvocationHandler.sendRequestWithPossibleRetries(...)

      The only shown message is:
      java.lang.IllegalStateException: EJBCLIENT000032: Cannot retry a request which hasn't previously been completed

      If DEBUG is enabled at client side:
