While we might at some future time support deploying portable apps
using a weblogic plan, I would not be in favor of supporting
non-compliant jndi access outside of java:comp/. We certainly don't
support it now.
thanks

Subject: Re: Local Session Bean lookups and JNDI
Hi Again Aaron,
You're right, that does work, thanks. From that, I'll see if I can
figure out how to back-track and get XDoclet to generate something that
will work in this case. I think I should be able to. But I have a
fallback position anyway.
Cheers.

It sounds like PhoneBookSessionUtil is trying to look up the
JNDI
name:
org.acme.phonebook.ejb/PhoneBookSession/LocalHome
When really, based on the EJB ref you created, it should be
looking up:
java:comp/env/ejb/PhoneBookSessionLocal
There might be another method or constant in
PhoneBookSessionUtil
that you can use to achieve this. Otherwise, just do this:
PhoneBookSessionLocal session = ((PhoneBookSessionHome)
ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/PhoneBookSessionLocal")).create();
If you get that working, you can forget about the jndi-name and
local-jndi-name (they won't be necessary unless you have an
application
client).

Hi All,
Well, I'm working through the details for a Struts web app with an
EJB
back end, all being compiled with a Maven build script and just
putting
all of the pieces in place to have XDoclet 1.2.3 do much of the major
gruntwork for the Struts-config.xml and the ejb-jar.xml and web.xml
also. Lots of details, but most of them are coming together now.
But I'm stuck on the JNDI side of things, it seems. I've discovered
the
need for specifying the jndi-name and local-jndi-name for my CMP 2
EJB,
and my Stateless Session Bean inside of openejb-jar.xml and I've
confirmed that my changes are having an effect on the deployed
application by looking at the Debug Console and clicking on my EJBs.
I
have also put entries in my web.xml to link them like I used to do
with
another container I've used before. But I think maybe there's more to
it
in Geronimo? I can't do Local JNDI lookups and instantiate my EJBs
like
I used to be able to?
Do I need something in the geronimo-jetty.xml deployment plan file?
What
I have in my web.xml looks like this:
<ejb-local-ref >
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/PhoneBookEntryLocal</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
<local-home>org.acme.phonebook.ejb.PhoneBookEntryLocalHome</local-
home
<local>org.acme.phonebook.ejb.PhoneBookEntryLocal</local>
<ejb-link>PhoneBookEntry</ejb-link>
</ejb-local-ref>
<ejb-local-ref >
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/PhoneBookSessionLocal</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Session</ejb-ref-type>
<local-home>org.acme.phonebook.ejb.PhoneBookSessionLocalHome</local-
ho
me>
<local>org.acme.phonebook.ejb.PhoneBookSessionLocal</local>
<ejb-link>PhoneBookSession</ejb-link>
</ejb-local-ref>
My Debug Console looks something like the following:
JndiNames [PhoneBookEntry]
LocalJndiNames [org.acme.phonebook.ejb/PhoneBookEntryLocalHome]
and
JndiNames [org.acme.phonebook.ejb/PhoneBookSession/Home]
LocalJndiNames
[org.acme.phonebook.ejb/PhoneBookSession/LocalHome]
for each of them. Yes, I know, I make strange names for my JNDI
entries... but that's what XDoclet seems to do for me, and as long as
I
can get it working, I don't care what it looks like. But, when I try
the
following code, Geronimo does this:
public Collection getEntries() {
try {
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
PhoneBookSessionLocal session =
PhoneBookSessionUtil.getLocalHome().create();
Collection c = session.listEntries();
return c;
} catch (Throwable ex) {
System.err.println(ex);
ex.printStackTrace();
}
return new ArrayList();
}

XDoclet is generating the following method, which I've used for years
without incident:
public static org.acme.phonebook.ejb.PhoneBookSessionLocalHome
getLocalHome() throws javax.naming.NamingException
{
return (org.acme.phonebook.ejb.PhoneBookSessionLocalHome)
lookupHome(null,
org.acme.phonebook.ejb.PhoneBookSessionLocalHome.JNDI_NAME,
org.acme.phonebook.ejb.PhoneBookSessionLocalHome.class);
}
private static Object lookupHome(java.util.Hashtable environment,
String jndiName, Class narrowTo) throws javax.naming.NamingException
{
// Obtain initial context
javax.naming.InitialContext initialContext = new
javax.naming.InitialContext(environment);
try {
Object objRef = initialContext.lookup(jndiName);
// only narrow if necessary
if (java.rmi.Remote.class.isAssignableFrom(narrowTo))
return javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow(objRef,
narrowTo);
else
return objRef;
} finally {
initialContext.close();
}
}
and the constants that it's using are:
public static final String
COMP_NAME="java:comp/env/ejb/PhoneBookSessionLocal";
public static final String
JNDI_NAME="org.acme.phonebook.ejb/PhoneBookSession/LocalHome";
I guess I'm feeling a little blind these days, since working with
another container I was always able to simply take a squint at the
JNDI
tree through a nice little JMX method. Is there a similar operation I
can do with this Debug Console? Remember I'm using Geronimo HEAD for
most of this (I guess it's time for another maven m:update though).
Thanks for any insights you can give on better using JNDI and
bridging
the gap between the Web application and the EJB world.
Thanks.
