In the deployment descriptor DTD, I noticed this:
<!--
The ejb-ref element is used for the declaration of a reference to
another enterprise bean's home. The declaration consists of an optional
description; the EJB reference name used in the code of the referencing
enterprise bean; the expected type of the referenced enterprise bean;
the expected home and remote interfaces of the referenced enterprise
bean; and an optional ejb-link information.
The optional ejb-link element is used to specify the referenced
enterprise bean. It is used typically in ejb-jar files that contain an
assembled application.
Used in: entity and session
-->
<!ELEMENT ejb-ref (description?, ejb-ref-name, ejb-ref-type, home,
remote, ejb-link?)>
Could someone give me an example of what this would look like? The element
that I am having trouble understanding is ejb-ref-name. Is this the JNDI
name that the referencing bean uses in its code? Isn't that dangerous to
keep that name in two places? Don't you have to change code if an
ejb-ref-name is changed in your deployment descriptor?
Cheers,
Larid
