Overriding environment entries at deployment time

ipage Dec 29, 2004 11:52 AM

I'm sure I've seen this problem raised before, but I haven't seen a solution to it yet.

I have environment entries in my ejb-jar.xml which point to a server (e.g. a mail server). I wish to override these values at deployment time when I deploy the application to a different environment, for example test or production. The EJB spec (20.2.4) states that the container provider must 'provide a deployment tool that allows the Deployer to set and modify the values of the enterprise bean?s environment entries'. However, I don't see how this is possible in JBoss (3.2.5). Can anyone help?

Many thanks...

As far as I now JBoss doesn't provide such a tool.
But Sun J2EE 1.4 Reference Implementation have great GUI tool called deployer which may solve your problem.

I assumed that the RI tools only worked for sun's RI server. Is this not the case?

Thanks,
