Why not a HomeManager for your java application client (not a ejb bean)?
Sample code, not checked since I have typed it into my mail client. Also
does not handle concurrency, exception handling.......but a start.
public final class HomeManager {
private static HomeManager _instance = new HomeManager();
private HashMap _homes = new HashMap();
private Context _context = null;
private HomeManager() { init(); }
public static HomeManager getInstance() { return _instance; }
private void init() {
try {
_context = new InitialContext();
} catch (NamingException e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
}
public EJBHome lookup(String name) throws Exception {
EJBHome home = null;
if((home=(EJBHome)_homes.get(name))==null) {
home =
(EJBHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(_context.lookup(name),EJBHome.class);
home =
(EJBHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(home,home.getEJBMetaData().getHomeInter
faceClass());
_homes.put(name,home);
}
return home;
}
}
Why pool contexts when you can pool homes. Is this not the starting point
for your interation with beans...before creation.
