ejbRemove() doesn't remove the bean

[markuspr]

Hi,

I've tried to delete a CMP2 bean via its ejbRemove-method:

InitialContext lContext = new InitialContext();
PersonHome lPersonHome = (PersonHome) lContext.lookup("ejb/address/Person");
Person lPerson = lPersonHome.findByName(pName);
lPerson.ejbRemove();

There is no exception or any other failure, but the bean isn't deleted as well.
The code for the ejbRemove() in the PersonBean is:

/**
* Removes the bean
*
* @ejb:interface-method view-type="remote"
**/
public void ejbRemove() throws RemoveException
{ }

So Xdoclet generated the following code in the jaws.xml:


<ejb-name>address/Person</ejb-name>
<cmp-field>
<field-name>name</field-name>
<column-name>NAME</column-name>
</cmp-field>
<cmp-field>
<field-name>phone</field-name>
<column-name>PHONE</column-name>
</cmp-field>
[...]

findByName
<![CDATA[NAME = {0}]]>



<table-name>Person</table-name>
<create-table>true</create-table>
<remove-table>false</remove-table>
<row-locking></row-locking>


I can create the bean, modify it, find it, but I really can't delete it. I'm using Hypersonic database.
Can someone tell me what's going wrong? Thanks!

the ejbRemove method is in the Bena class - you need to call remove() which is a method defined in the home class.

(it is in the super class so you do not see the method in your files).

Thanks for your help. I really works now.
For beginners this is a little bit confusing. In Monson-Haefels "Enterprise JavaBeans" the ejbRemove-method is used that's why I've tried it this way all the time...
