Abstract Class defination in Bean Implementation class

[suvankar17]

Hi,
I am working on the CMP entity bean and I am following the EJB2.0 specification to code my CMP entity bean. The EJB2.0 specification says that the bean implementation class XXXEJB.java should be declared as Abstract and also the getter and setter methods in that class has to be declared as abstract , but when I try to code like that , the Jboss gives me warning says "XXXEJB.java can't be declared abstract", which i think opposite to the specification and when I remove the abstract from my XXXEJB.class, it works fine. Please help me, as where I am wrong. I am confused...

You have the wrong dtd, try

[pre]
<!DOCTYPE ejb-jar PUBLIC
"-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Enterprise JavaBeans 2.0//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/ejb-jar_2_0.dtd">
[/pre]

Otherwise JBoss will assume EJB1.1

Regards,
Adrian

Not for CMP, but it is for most other things.
