EJB 3.0 w/vanilla deployment descriptor

[wfsaxton]

I'm wondering how to use a WEB APP type deployment descriptor with an EJB in order to store configuration variables for the EJB to use.

By WEB APP type I mean:
- Creating a "web.xml" file and putting the parameters in it
- Using something like "getInitParameter(param)" to access them

Is there a way to do this?

do you mean env-entry?

Actually, I usually do it via "context-param" element:

They seem to be the same thing, though...just a way of injecting a variable into web application via configuration file (web.xml).

Anyone?
