Local JNDI lookup again...

[Kevin]

Hi all,

In my session beans I need to lookup the local home interface of some other entity beans. I have added the following paragraph to ejb-jar.xml of the session beans:

<ejb-local-ref>
  <ejb-ref-name>JNDI_NAME</ejb-ref-name>
  <ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
  <local-home>myprog.SomeEntityLocalHome</local-home>
  <local> myprog.SomeEntityLocal</local>
  <ejb-link>SomeEntity</ejb-link>
</ejb-local-ref>

If I have to lookup about 40+ beans in this session, do I need to repeat the above paragraph for 40+ times? Or is there any shortcut to place all the beans to a wider scope?

Thanks,
Kevin
