Hi,
I have the following declaration in a ejb-jar.xml:
What exactly does this mean(the statements in bold)?
<session >
.....
<ejb-name>MyTestManagerBean</ejb-name>
<home>...</home>
<remote>...</remote>
<ejb-class>...</ejb-class>
<session-type>Stateless</session-type>
<transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
<ejb-local-ref >
<ejb-ref-name>ejb/SequenceGenerator</ejb-ref-name>
<ejb-ref-type>Session</ejb-ref-type>
<local-home>...</local-home>
<local>...</local>
<ejb-link>SequenceGeneratorBean</ejb-link>
</ejb-local-ref>
<resource-ref >
<res-ref-name>jdbc/myDS</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
<res-sharing-scope>Shareable</res-sharing-scope>
</resource-ref>
</session>
As per my understanding, it creates a logical reference for a bean to be referred by some other bean. Is this right?
When is the logical name actually created during startup of server? i.e. When is the SequenceGeneratorBean bound to ejb/SequenceGenerator.
I am enquiring about this since, i have a startup class implemented using a mbean, which actually looks up a bean. The bean (say xyzBean) looks up the MyTestManagerBean. I get the following exception:
/ejb not bound
If i remove the ejb-local-ref from the ejb-jar, then everything works fine.
So how do i specify a dependency in my mbean for this local reference.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thank you
