The J2EE-RI prevents a bean from doing I/O ops from within the bean class using
a restricted Java2 permission set. You can always get around this by placing the
code that performs the I/O in the proper location so that its codebase is assigned
the required permissions. By placing log4j or any logging framework at a codebase
that allows file I/O you can use it within an EJB and be spec compliant as long
as logging is not a critical bean function that must be consistent with the
transactional
settings of the EJB.
