Trying to create an EJB Project in Eclipse

I am following the tutorial at this link: http://programming.manessinger.com/tutorials/an-eclipse-glassfish-java-ee-6-tutorial/, but instead using JBoss instead of GlassFish. I am basically trying to learn Java EE concepts like EJB, Hibernate and JPA.

However, I am stuck on the part for creating an EJB Project in Eclipse. I am supposed to add this to the EAR project, but I cannot find the EJB Project as a selection for new project. I went through the entire list, and it simply is not there. All I see are options for creating EJB Message and Session beans.

Any help is appreciated.

The EJB project must not be created inside the EAR project. Eclipse doesn't have the notiopon of projects inside a project. You create a new top-level EJB project (File - New - EJB - EJB Project), and in its settings, you declare it's part of the other EAR project.
