Bindings file in EJB 3.0

[vipul bondugula]

Hi Ranchers,

Currenlty i am working on an enterprise project including ejb 3.0 and web. In EJB we are having both session beans and message driven beans.
Using IDE , we developed session beans and local business interfaces extended by session beans. Using annotations we have done it.
sample example of session bean:

  @Stateless
public class AdminBean implements AdminBeanLocal {
	private static final String CLASSNAME = "AdminBean";
	@Resource
	private javax.ejb.SessionContext mySessionCtx;
	private void refreshApplicationSingleton(arg0,arg1)
       {
             //funcitionality goes here
       }
		
}
  

local business interface:

@Local
public interface AdminBeanLocal 
{
refreshApplicationSingleton();
}

 

In Facade Bean, i am accessing session bean like this:

public class AdminDelegate extends BaseDelegate
{
	
	
	@EJB
	private AdminBeanLocal adminLocal;

and directly i am calling methods using adminLocal..

}

and in ejb 3, ejb-jar.xml file is optional. and i am not configuring session beans at any other place like ibm-ejb-jar-bnd.xml..Is it required my sessionbeans to be configured in ibm-ejb-jar-bnd.xml file? please check my configuration and if any other configuration required, please tell me.

More over, what is the use of ibm-ejb-jar-bnd.xml file?

Thanks

I'm not sure if it is required, but the JNDI name has to be specified somewhere. If it isn't in the bindings file, it needs to be somewhere else.

Binding file is required. we configure ejb and mdb resources in ibm-ejb-jar-bnd.xml file..

Thanks to Google...
