Best book to learn EJB?

[frocco]

Hello,

I have been programming in jsp & servlets, but want to expand to EJB.

What is the best book to learn from and get up to speed quickly?

I like books that walk you through an application development. (visual examples)

Thanks for the help.

Frank;

I recommend Enterprise JavaBeans by Richard Monson-Haefel. The subject of the best book may be hotly contested, but in my view there is no question that regardless of the book, you need to work on some examples. I recommend you get XDoclet 1.2 and XPetStore 3.1 as XDoclet is the easiest way to work with EJBs and both packages come with extensive reference and examples.

Also check out the free EJB work book at http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/entjbeans3/workbooks/index.html.
