Confused abotu how to get context...

[ericchile]

I am a little confused on how to lookup the context of an EJB. In using the Oracle tutorals they seem to suggest using

@Stateless(name = "myName")

and then looking it up like context.lookup("myName");

This seems to work fine in OC4J but not in JBoss

What is the correct way to lookup a EJB?

Hi !

JBoss builds it's JNDI names this way: "EarName/BeanName/remote" or "EarName/BeanName/local", so in your sample it should be "EarName/myName/remote".

Take a look at the JNDI-View ( http://localhost:8080/jmx-console/HtmlAdaptor?action=inspectMBean&name=jboss%3Aservice%3DJNDIView)
to see the JNDI name of your bean.

Hope this helps

If you have a remote client, how do you specifiy which server to connet to?

Ie if I am running jboss and OC4J, how does it know to lookup jboss beans and not OC4J?
