EJB 3.0 version choice when creating EJB project [message #265168]

I am using Eclipse 3.4, jdk 1.5 and JBOSS 4.0.2. I am trying to create an
EJB 3.0 project from Eclipse using the procedure described in Eclipse
documentation and help screens. The project creation dialog has an
drop-down list to select EJB module version. This list only provides EBJ
1.0, 2.0 and 2.1 version. There is no selection for EJB 3.0. As I
mentioned earlier, Eclipse is configured for JDK 1.5 JRE. I had
successfully installed JBoss for EJB 3.0 configuration successfully, so I
know that the jdk version is not the issue. Any suggestions?

I found the reason why Eclipse 3.4 is not offering a choice in the
drop-down list for EJB Module version in EJB project creation dialog. I
have JBoss 4.0 GA installed. The JBoss 4.0 provides support for EJB 3.0
only if you install it using one their installer. I guess Eclipse 3.4
doesn't pick up on some special install configurations created by the
installer, so Eclipse probably thinks that the JBoss 4.0 doesn't support
EJB 3.0. When I selected JBoss 4.2, then the EJB module version added the
3.0 choice in the list.

So I created a project using the EJB project and specified JBoss 4.2 so
that I can select EJB 3.0. Once the project was created, the ejb-jar.xml
still shows version 2.1. I think this is all related to the fact that GA
release 2.1.2 of JBoss tools is incompatible with newest Eclipse 3.4
release.
