I'll take a stab at joining this mid-thread...

I'm guessing he means ejb-jar.xml, web.xml and the app-server specific xml
deployment descriptors (DDs). What he's saying, is that if you open them,
there are useful comments for how to use merges in them.

if you have a bean
com.mycompany.ejb.MyBean
then have a file
mergedir/com/mycompany/ejb/ejb-env-entries-MyBean.xml
and its contents will be placed in the appropriate place in ejb-jar.xml

this is a tricki(er) one (o: There's no hard and fast rule, but most of
them a apparent (although not obvious). For example, have a look at
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/xdoclet/xdoclet/modules/ejb/s
rc/xdoclet/modules/ejb/dd/resources/ and you'll see the various templates in
use for ejb-jar.xml. These are complicated, and so use 'include' style
functionality....
> How was the file name "ejb-env-entries-SessionBean.xml" arrived at?
Hopefully the above answers this. Its based on the name of your bean.
hth, also hope I haven't trodden on toes (o:
cheers
