      Annotating the "A" interface with @LocalBinding and setting "B" injected mappedName to this value allows redeployment of "A". However, "B"'s lifecycle will no longer be tied to "A". That is, "B" will not stop when you undeploy "A"

      I have two @Service jars, service "A" and "B" where "B" injects an instance of "A" using the @EJB annotation with a mappedName attribute set to the default jndi location of A ("EJBTestAService/local" in the example provided.) When deployed, they work fine. But, if "A" is redeployed, access to "B" fails due to a NullPointerException, the reference to "A" is null. See EJBTHREE-1889 for code to reproduce.
