|
|hi
|
|i dont really know what the error means tho..but for external EJB stuff,
|here's how i did it.
|
|I have 3 beans with one as a facade to two others.
|RegistrationAdminViewEJB(stateful session)
|                (calls)
|                           |-------------------->
|SequenceGeneratorEJB (stateless
|session)
|                           |--------------------> RegistrantEJB (entity)
|
|
|the packaging and .xml should look like these
|
|for SequenceGeneratorEJB jar
|    SequenceGeneratorHome
|    SequenceGeneratorRemoteInterface
|    SequenceGeneratorBean
|
|for the .xml, nothing special in ejb-jar.xml but in jboss.xml, i
|make sure that i
|have the jndi-name
|so that i can reference it later in RegistrationAdmin's jboss.xml
| <enterprise-beans>
|     <session>
|      <ejb-name>SequenceEJB</ejb-name>
|        <jndi-name>sequence/registrant/RegistrantSequence</jndi-name>
|         <configuration-name></configuration-name>
|         <resource-ref> </resource-ref>
|       </session>
|     </enterprise-beans>
|
|for RegistrantEJB jar
|    RegistrantHome
|    RegistrantRemoteInterface
|    RegistrantBean
|
|for the .xml, again nothing special in ejb-jar.xml but in jboss.xml
|      <enterprise-beans>
|       <entity>
|        <ejb-name>RegistrantEJB</ejb-name>
|        <jndi-name>registration/component/Registrant</jndi-name>
|       <configuration-name></configuration-name>
|       <resource-ref> </resource-ref>
|        </entity>
|     </enterprise-beans>
|
|
|
|for RegistrationAdminViewEJB jar:
|    RegistrantAdminViewHome
|    RegisrantAdminViewRemoteInterface
|    RegistrantAdminViewBean
|    SequenceGeneratorHome
|    SequenceGeneratorRemoteInterface
|    RegistrantHome
|    RegistrantRemoteInterface
|
|
|here's where you refer those two
|
|ejb-jar.xml
|
|      <session>
|        <description>Registration Admin</description>
|        <display-name>Registration Admin View</display-name>
|        <ejb-name>RegistrationAdminViewEJB</ejb-name>
|        <home>streamworx.registration.ejb.RegistrationAdminViewHome</home>
|        <remote>streamworx.registration.ejb.RegistrationAdminView</remote>
|
|<ejb-class>streamworx.registration.ejb.RegistrationAdminViewBean</e
|jb-class>
|             <session-type>Stateful</session-type>
|        <transaction-type>Bean</transaction-type>
|
|   <!-- external EJB link to SequenceGenerator-->
|     <ejb-ref>
|
|<ejb-ref-name>ejb/sequence/registration/RegistrantSequence</ejb-ref-name>
|                <ejb-ref-type>Session</ejb-ref-type>
|                <home>streamworx.sequence.ejb.SequenceGeneratorHome</home>
|                <remote>streamworx.sequence.ejb.SequenceGenerator</remote>
|   </ejb-ref>
|
|   <!-- external EJB link to Registrant-->
|     <ejb-ref>
|
|<ejb-ref-name>ejb/registration/component/Registrant</ejb-ref-name>
|                <ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
|                <home>streamworx.registrant.ejb.RegistrantHome</home>
|                <remote>streamworx.registrant.ejb.Registrant</remote>
|   </ejb-ref>
|  </session>
|
|
|and in jboss.xml
|
|   <enterprise-beans>
|
|  <!-- resource for RegistrationAdminView -->
|       <session>
|    <ejb-name>RegistrationAdminViewEJB</ejb-name>
|    <jndi-name>registration/component/RegistrationAdminView</jndi-name>
|    <configuration-name></configuration-name>
|
|   <!-- real link to SequenceGenerator -->
|   <ejb-ref>
|
|<ejb-ref-name>ejb/sequence/registration/RegistrantSequence</ejb-ref-name>
|
|<jndi-name>/sequence/registration/RegistrantSequence</jndi-name>
|             </ejb-ref>
|
|   <!-- real link to Registrant -->
|   <ejb-ref>
|
|<ejb-ref-name>ejb/registration/component/Registrant</ejb-ref-name>
|
|                <jndi-name>/registration/component/Registrant</jndi-name>
|             </ejb-ref>
|
|        </session>
|
|     </enterprise-beans
|
|
|AND...(pheww i hope someone put this to use..) for the code in
|RegistrationAdminView
|
|
|   /**
|   * cache references to resources in this bean.
|   */
|   private void cacheReferences() {
|      try {
|            Object objref;
|            InitialContext initial = new InitialContext();
|                if(sequenceGenHomeRef == null) {
|                    objref =
|initial.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/sequence/registration/RegistrantS
|equence");
|                    sequenceGenHomeRef = (SequenceGeneratorHome)
|                    PortableRemoteObject.narrow(objref,
|SequenceGeneratorHome.class);
|                }
|                if(regHomeRef == null) {
|                    objref =
|initial.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/registration/component/Registrant");
|                    regHomeRef = (RegistrantHome)
|                    PortableRemoteObject.narrow(objref,
|RegistrantHome.class);
|                }
|        } catch (javax.naming.NamingException ne) {
|            throw new EJBException ("Naming error" + ne);
|        }
|        return;
|   }
|
|

|some helper classes which are outside of this discussion context...
