Difference between resource-ref and resource-env-ref ejb3

[Damodar Mukhopadhyay]

Hi,

Can any one please describe the difference between resource-ref and resource-env-ref?
How resource-env-ref is annotated?


Thanks...

[James Joshy]

Think of <resource-ref> as reference to external resource factory ... like DataSource
<resource-env-ref> is rather a reference to the resource itself like JMS destinatinations. No middleman here

The bottom line, it is confusing .. just memorize ..
