Hi
I wrote to one of your collegues and they informed to forward my letter
to you, so here it is, it
The problem is that we have a server with an Oracle database that the
EJB's are deployed into. We then try to activate an EJB through a web
browser and it is impossible. But if we have the same code but activate
it through the applet veiwer or a Application it works. This appears to
be due to the fact that the Web Browser has its own internal ORB. And
oracle need there own to use the EJB's deployed into their database.
They have informed me that this is probably the case for all EJB
vendors.
I thought of using PowerTier as our EJB vendor, but their web pages
implies that ther have the same problem. The only way to instantiate and
use an EJB on the server from with an Client Web Browser is to use
servlets, for creation and method calls etc.
Also i looked at the sun web page at a section called Communication
Protocols and it states "Browsers can invoke the application through a
servlet running on the HTTP server. The browser communicates with the
servlet using HTTP, and the servlet communicates with the application
using RMI" which to me implies that you can only invoke an EJB on the
server and communicate with it using a servlet running on the HTTP
server.
I hope this has defined my question, is it possible to invoke and
communicate with an EJB on the Server directly from within a Web Browser
without using servlets.
I look forward to your reply
Scott
