When ejb-link is supplied is it mandatory to use beanName attribute on EJB annotation?

[gurpreet_asrgndu]

the explanation says that If all the beans are in the same module, <ejb-link> is not required . but this is not true. . what if you are injecting a local business interface(MyLocal) of a bean2(ejb-name) in bean1 and MyLocal is implemented by more than 1 bean ? in this case how will you resolve the conflict ? either you use <ejb-link> element to specify the ejb-name or you use <lookup-name> but not both.

Of course, if there is an ambiguity then you need it but it is not required otherwise.
