Dear All,
Hey,
I am a long lost SCJP. Lost the touch in somewhere June 2001. Now I am planning to be back in the stream, starting right from
things like ejb, j2ee, statefull, stateless etc etc. I 'll be needing a lot of help here...
Rest is fine.
Thanks & Bye,

& BTW, congrats on giving my best java companion a facelift....

Ok Here starts my queries.

I am studying from Ed Roman's Mastering EJB. I have just made my first enterprise bean ("Hello World"). I have the following
structure of my bean:
Package: HelloBean
3 Java source files:
Hello.java -- The interface which extends javax.ejb.EJBObject -- The Remote Interface file
HelloHome.java -- The interface which extends javax.ejb.EJBHome -- The Home Interface file
HelloBean.java -- The Actual Bean class which implements javax.ejb.SessionBean interface -- The Bean class file

1 Deployment Descriptor: Deployment_Descriptor.txt (Copied and edited from Ed Roman's Source code)

Now, when I try to compile these files, I get the error stating that javax.ejb.* class files not found.
package javax.ejb does not exist
cannot resolve symbol

I compile these files using the following command:
javac HelloBean\*.java

I was able to get j2ee up and running, I also have installed the Weblogic 6.1 server and it also seems to be running ok.
My directory structure is as follows:
Bea Home : c:\bea
JDK 1.3.1 : c:\bea\jdk131
J2EE 1.3.1: c:\j2ee

Can anybody help me on compiling my .java files and further steps.
Thanks & Bye,
Tualha Khan

Dear All,
Hey,
I was able to finally compile my .java files successfully (thanks a tonne to someone on this forum). Now the next question is about deployment. I have both J2ee and Weblogic up and running, what is a better choice?? Also, if I deploy my ejb in one environment, then can I with a little effort deploy it in the other environment?
Do guide!
Thanks & Bye,

Dear All,
Hey,
I have successfully, deployed my first EJB. However there seems to be some problem in the client code. I am using the J2EE's deploytool to deploy the Application. Here is the summary from the Deploytool
===========================
Deploy the application in C:\bea\jfiles\HelloWorldApp.ear on the server
localhost saving the client jar as C:\bea\jfiles\HelloWorldAppClient.jar

===========================
The StackTrace suggests some problem arises when I call the create() method on the Home interface of my app. Following are
the four source files.
==========================
HelloWorld.java (The Remote Interface)
import javax.ejb.*;
import java.rmi.*;

public interface HelloWorld extends EJBObject
{
public String hello() throws RemoteException;
}
==========================
HelloworldHome.java (The Home Interface)
import javax.ejb.*;
import java.rmi.*;
import java.io.Serializable;

public interface HelloWorldHome extends EJBHome
{
HelloWorld create() throws RemoteException, CreateException;
}

==========================
HelloWorldBean.java (The Enterprise Bean Class)
import javax.ejb.*;
import java.rmi.*;

public class HelloWorldBean implements SessionBean
{
public String hello()
{
System.out.println("Cool EJB Ultimately Worked??");
return "Yep, it Did!!";
}
public void ejbCreate()
{
System.out.println("In ejbCreate()");
}
public void ejbRemove()
{
System.out.println("In ejbRemove()");
}
public void ejbActivate()
{
System.out.println("In ejbActivate()");
}
public void ejbPassivate()
{
System.out.println("In ejbPassivate()");
}
public void setSessionContext(SessionContext ctx)
{
System.out.println("In setSessionContext()");
}
}

==========================
HelloWorldClient.java (The Application Client)
import javax.naming.Context;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
import javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject;
import HelloWorld;
import HelloWorldHome;
public class HelloWorldClient
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
try
{
Context initial = new InitialContext();
Object objref=initial.lookup("java:comp/env/SimpleHelloWorld");
HelloWorldHome home=(HelloWorldHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(objref,
HelloWorldHome.class);
System.out.println("Before Object Creation --->>>");
HelloWorld sayHello = home.create();
//String hellosaid=sayHello.hello();
//System.out.println("The Reply from EJB is : "+hellosaid);
System.out.println("Client Seems to be ok");
//sayHello.remove();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
System.out.println("Caught an Exception: "+ex);
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}

==========================

Any help will be appreciated!!
Thanks & Bye,
