Exercise 4.2: A Simple Session Bean
In this exercise, you will create and build the TravelAgent EJB. This simple bean illustrates the use of a stateless session bean and mirrors the code shown in Chapter 4 of the EJB section of this book.
Start Up JBoss
If you already have JBoss running, there is no reason to restart it. Otherwise, start it up as instructed in the JBoss Installation and Configuration chapter.
Initialize the Database
The database should contain the 100 rows created by a successful
execution of the test programs from the previous exercise,
Client_1 and Client_2.
Build and Deploy the Example Programs
Perform the following steps:
Open a command prompt or shell terminal and change to the
ex04_2directory created by the extraction process.Set the
JAVA_HOMEandJBOSS_HOMEenvironment variables to point to where your JDK and JBoss 4.0 are installed. Examples:Windows: C:\workbook\ex04_2> set JAVA_HOME=C:\jdk1.4.2 C:\workbook\ex04_2> set JBOSS_HOME=C:\jboss-4.0Unix: $ export JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/jdk1.4.2 $ export JBOSS_HOME=/usr/local/jboss-4.0Add
antto your execution path. Ant is the build utility.Windows: C:\workbook\ex04_2> set PATH=..\ant\bin;%PATH%Unix: $ export PATH=../ant/bin:$PATHPerform the build by typing
ant.
As in the last exercise, you will see titan.jar
rebuilt, copied to the JBoss deploy directory,
and redeployed by the application server.
Examine the JBoss-Specific Files
In this example, the jboss.xml deployment descriptor overrides the default JNDI binding for ...
