I had seen this, actually, but all I had seen was an example, and I wasn't
sure if this was ready for prime time, so to speak. Is this the preferred
way to access EJB of any kind from JSP? (I'll be adding a set of session
beans soon, I think, based on how many people commented that direct access
to entity beans wasn't a normal thing.) Is this documented anywhere? (Am
I somehow accidentally volunteering to document it? ) Is it portable to
other app servers?
