Thanks Jim.
Anyway, what's the specific sintax for declaring a
remote location to find an EJB within orion-web.xml. I guess it might be the
"location" attribute in the ejb-mapping tag with an external jndi reference. It
is posible ?

Subject: RE: EJB Sharing between
applications
If
you search the archives you will find my writup on this. It is not possible
from within an Orion J2EE container (either web or ejb). Not only that, it is
not possible to call EJBs in another instance of the same application (that
is, more than one other REMOTE instance - you can call ONE other remote
instance using the orion specific configuration) from within an
Orion J2EE container.
This
is a severe limitation and one that will need to be addressed if Orion hopes
to be ejb 1.3 compliant.
There is a hack that MIGHT work if there are no circular dependencies
between your EARs. You can have one application be a parent of another, and a
third application be the parent of the first parent. We started experimenting
with this when we decieded that it was too restrictive and we went with
another J2EE imlpementation. I'm hoping that Orion fixes this problem because
all in all if they fix their JNDI issues (which is the source of
this problem) it's not a poor quality server.
Hello everyone.
I'm testing orion for use in a variety of
applications. Our software company have developed many J2EE components in
the form of diferents applications (diferents EAR files) that interact with
each other throught its EJB and JSP pages.
I think there must be another way to share
EJB's functionality between applications (without going throught network
layer, i hope).
Please, any directions will be
welcome
Thanks in advance.
