    AS 7.1.0 Final calling remote ejb without using property file?

    sekobey

      Hi,

       

      As you know when calling remote ejbs in AS 7.x.x we use jboss-ejb-client.properties in the classpath. It works perfect. However, i want to give connection properties in the code (i.e. System.setProperty(..) or context property), i mean at runtime. Is there a way to do it???

          You might use this:

          {code}

          Hashtable<String, String> p = new Hashtable<String, String>();

          p.put(InitialContext.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jboss.naming.remote.client.InitialContextFactory");

          p.put(InitialContext.PROVIDER_URL, "remote://localhost:4447");

          p.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL,"user");

          p.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "user123");

          new InitialContext(p);

          {code}

           

          Also you have to add the user with add-user.sh to the ApplicationRealm.

           

          But notice this is deprecated and the 'ejb:' lookup is the recommended one.

            I sincerely could not without the jboss-ejb-client.properties file, it throws the following exception:

            btw I am calling an SFSB with a RemoteHome and an Init method.

              Can be an issue AS7-4110. Could you try a nightly build (solved last night ) or 7.1.1.Final?

                Hi Wolf-Dieter Fink,

                 

                You might use this:

                {code}

                Hashtable<String, String> p = new Hashtable<String, String>();

                p.put(InitialContext.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jboss.naming.remote.client.InitialContextFactory");

                p.put(InitialContext.PROVIDER_URL, "remote://localhost:4447");

                p.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL,"user");

                p.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "user123");

                new InitialContext(p);

                {code}

                 

                Also you have to add the user with add-user.sh to the ApplicationRealm.

                 

                But notice this is deprecated and the 'ejb:' lookup is the recommended one.

                 

                I tried this piece of code many times before you suggest, but it doesn't work.

                 

                I think I found solution.

                 

                At post "How to call a remote EJB without a property file?"  Jakiran gives an example for calling a remote ejb without a property file. However, property setup part of that example is left blank. When i tried that example it has worked. Code is below:

                 

                Properties pr = new Properties();

                pr.put("endpoint.name", "client-endpoint");

                pr.put("remote.connectionprovider.create.options.org.xnio.Options.SSL_ENABLED", "false");

                pr.put("remote.connections", "default");

                pr.put("remote.connection.default.port", "4447");

                pr.put("remote.connection.default.host", "localhost");

                pr.put("remote.connection.default.connect.options.org.xnio.Options.SASL_POLICY_NOANONYMOUS", "false");

                // Username and password is not needed if security-realm attribute is omitted from remoting-connector

                // pr.put("remote.connection.default.username", "testuser2");

                // pr.put("remote.connection.default.password", "1");

                EJBClientConfiguration cc = new PropertiesBasedEJBClientConfiguration(pr);

                ContextSelector < EJBClientContext > selector = new ConfigBasedEJBClientContextSelector(cc);

                EJBClientContext.setSelector(selector);

                Properties props = new Properties();

                props.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.ejb.client.naming");

                try {

                    Context c = new InitialContext(props);

                    c.lookup("ejb:<jndi-name-of-the-ejb>");

                }

                catch (NamingException ex) {

                    ex.printStackTrace();

                }
