    migration path from ejb2 to ejb3

    navjeetc

      We are planning to port our web app currently deployed on weblogic 8.x to jboss and we have quite a lot session and entity beans to be ported to ejb3 spec.

      Does the jboss app server (4.x or upcoming 5.0) provide utilities/scripts (or ide plugins) to migrate ejb2 based session and entity beans (with ejbgen tags)vto ejb3 spec bases beans? If it does, then will the migrated code be portable to other (non jboss) EJB3 compliant containers?

          IntelliJ has nice features to do this... you can move EJB2 beans to EJB3 - it adds the annotations and such for you

          (or so I've been told, I'm an eclipse user :)

            You are right, we just upgrade to Intellij 6 and it does have that feature. I did give it a run (in preview mode) and it seems to keep the old ejbjen tags around which should hopefully be not a problem. I am planning to apply this on a simple session bean and deploy it in Jboss.

            Has anybody already done that using Intellij?
