== Why is this an issue?

Default interceptors, such as application security interceptors, must be listed in the ``++ejb-jar.xml++`` file, or they will not be treated as default.


This rule applies to projects that contain JEE Beans (any one of ``++javax.ejb.Singleton++``, ``++MessageDriven++``, ``++Stateless++`` or ``++Stateful++``).


=== Noncompliant code example

[source,xml]
----
// file: ejb-interceptors.xml
<assembly-descriptor>
 <interceptor-binding> <!-- should be declared in ejb-jar.xml -->
      <ejb-name>*</ejb-name>
      <interceptor-class>com.myco.ImportantInterceptor</interceptor-class> <!-- Noncompliant; will NOT be treated as default -->
   </interceptor-binding>
</assembly-descriptor>
----


=== Compliant solution

[source,xml]
----
// file: ejb-jar.xml
<assembly-descriptor>
 <interceptor-binding>
      <ejb-name>*</ejb-name>
      <interceptor-class>com.myco.ImportantInterceptor</interceptor-class>
   </interceptor-binding>
</assembly-descriptor>

Project is EJB if it contains JEE Beans (any one of javax.ejb.Singleton, MessageDriven, Stateless or Stateful) (@Local/@Remote interfaces are not mandatory)

Your comment should probably be part of the rule description. Otherwise looks good.
