EJB 3.0 specification is finalized??

Hi,
We have a new J2EE proyect, we planning make it with EJB 3.0,but i dont know, this specification is finalized?? we are looking for application servers, we work with WebLogic, but yet no have full support to EJB 3.0. I dont nkow that use j2ee ejb 2.1 is better than ejb 3.0 because there isnt a application server that have full support to ejb 3.0

Yes, the EJB 3.0 specification went final along with the release of the Java EE 5 platform
last May. Here's the JCP page :
http://www.jcp.org/en/jsr/detail?id=220
SUN has a complete implementation of Java EE 5 available for free that can also be
used for production deployments.
http://java.sun.com/javaee/downloads/index.jsp
At this time, there are only two other compatible Java EE 5 products : TmaxSoft and SAP.
A number of other licensees are in the process of getting their products certified. You
can also see the latest list of certified implementations on our compatibility page :

Calling Enity Bean's business methods from a session bean in EJB 3.0 specif

Hello everybody,
Happy to be a member with you in this forum.
This is my first participation in this forum.
I have some problem to start with EJB 3.0 specification, I have created an entity bean with some business methods that access a mysql datbase, then i want to create a stateful session bean to provide the client an interface to consume business methods in Enity be
Please can someone you help me with an example

@Vladimir Pavlov
I did not understand what you are trying to convey...
Whenever an attribute of this bean is modified we want to access that latest value.... Is there any way to know, when the attribute is modified? Just with get/set we can not know, when it is modified... am i right?
We want to achieve this without modifying the existing source code of the EJB....
@ Ivo Simeonov
As of my knowledge, to use interceptors we need to modify the EJB source code, but we do not want to touch the source code....
All this has to be achieved dynamically when the application is deployed in the production.... is it possible???

How Does EJB 2.0 Specification Change the BC4J?

Hi,
I had read the while paper of BC4J thoroughly. The following statement interested me:
"As Oracle9iAS, WebLogic, and other J2EE application server vendors begin to rollout complete support for the new EJB 2.0 specification in the first half of 2002, a new release of the BC4J framework will be released which includes support for the new local entity beans. This work entails enhancing our lightweight, local entity classes to support the necessary interface to be lightweight EJB 2.0 Local Entity Beans. ...."
I have searched all the documents about BC4J, but I couldn't find anything more about "How Does EJB 2.0 Specification Change the BC4J?"
I think the "Local EJB Entity Beans" is similar with BC4J DAO. So is there someone who can tell me how does EJB 2.0 Specification change the BC4J?
Any help would be appreciated!
James

We support using local CMP entity beans as your persistence layer for your entity objects, but as it adds an extra layer, it's turned out (in all honesty) to not be that popular a feature.
The performance offered by the simpler BC4J entity object (plain old java class) is fine, and the notion of using simple java beans for your model is widely recognized as a fine option for J2EE applications.
For example, check out Rod Johnson's book called "Expert one-to-one: J2EE Design and Development" which covers this subject excellently.

It will likely run FCP but won't run Motion or Color. If the fastest external drive connection you have is FW800 then you'll be somewhat limited in the number of streams of video you can work with at the same time.
Also, it would run better with 4 GB RAM.

Does NW o4s (SP9) support EJB 2.1 specifications , if not , what is remedy

Hi all, can any one tell me whether SAP NetWeaver O4s SP 9 , supports EJB 2.1 specs, if not then what is remedy

Okay. I take this to mean that unlike RMI, objects that are passed remotely,
EJB remite method calls with objects as parameters may be regularly java objects?
I merely ask, because my text mentions:
"Remote Method Parameters"
- You can pass any of the native types (int float,double, boolean, and so on) but any
objects you pass must implement java.io.Serializable or java.rmi.remote.
Admittedly, this is for the old RMI where a stub was necessary,
however my doubt arises because EJB 2.1/3.0 is based on RMI.
So, I take that this is uneeded for EJB Remote Method object parameteters?

When will IAS support Message Driven Beans? My group needs to port an application from WebLogic to iPlanet which is using MDBs. Also, when will all of the EJB 2.0 specification be implmented?

Tim,
We will have development-only support for MDBs in the 6.5 release which is scheduled to release this month. The full EJB 2.0 spec will be supported in the next iteration of the product which is scheduled to be released in the summer.

Could anyone help me thanks

I am going to write a software which is very similar as the PC game "Football manager 2005", the user can store the data into the database , also they can check every player's attributes.
The interface is made by Java Swing. Could anyone tell me is JDBC the correct choice for this software?
Thanks for your help! : )

Well, you almost certainly want to use JDBC for the actual "talk-to-the-database" layer (probably using a "thin" driver). However, programming a large application directly with JDBC can be time-consuming and has a number of subtle pitfalls. In the last few years, many people have started using different sorts of "persistence layer" technology. The main ones I can think of are TopLink, Hibernate, Castor JDO (which is not compliant with the Sun JDO specification), JDO (Sun JDO). The first three are products (one or two of them open-source, I think), and Sun JDO is a specification with a lot of vendors supplying implementations (both commercial and open-source). Also, when the EJB 3.0 specification is finalized, it might be a good choice, and some vendors are supplying "early release" versions of EJB3 (EJB 2.0 is utterly unsuited for a Swing app., supposedly EJB3 will be appropriate there...).
If I were doing such a project, I would use JDO, but it's the technology I'm most familiar with; I like it and I'm biased. If you look into JDO, be aware that:
1) the JDO specifications list a lot of optional features and not every JDO implementation supports all features, although most of them will support everything you would need.
2) The 2.0 specification came out his spring and a lot of implementations don't support it yet. 2.0 has a few nice new features, but 1.0 has everything that 95% of all projects need, so I would consider all working implementations.
One of the nicest things about these intermediate persistence technologies is that they isolate you from the quirks of the particular database you are using. I'm aware of one hobby JDO project with 4 developers; they're developing with 3 different databases among them and expect to deploy on a 4th; there have been almost no "database compatibility issues" that I've heard about...
Another is that these products encapsulate in their functions a lot of "best practices" in regad to JDBC and database implementations, thereby shortening learning times and project times. Most or all of them also let you resort back to direct JDBC if you need to for special cases.

Aggregate functions in EJBQL ???

Does the latest version of Oracle App server support aggregate functions like SUM/COUNT/AVG in the EJBQL?

Does the latest version of Oracle App server support aggregate functions like SUM/COUNT/AVG in the EJBQL? Hi Swami --
The latest version of Oracle9iAS - v903 is J2EE 1.3 compatible so it supports all of the EJB 2.0 specification.
The EJB 2.0 specification lists the following functions for EJBQL:
String Functions:
CONCAT(String, String) returns a String
SUBSTRING(String, start, length) returns a String
LOCATE(String, String [, start]) returns an int
LENGTH(String) returns an int
Arithmetic Functions:
ABS(number) returns a number (int, float, or double)
SQRT(double) returns a double
The latest version of the EJB 2.1 specification which will be part of J2EE 1.4, has added support for aggregate functions like orderby, sum, count, etc.
11.2.7.2 Aggregate Functions in the SELECT Clause
The result of an EJB QL query may be the result of an aggregate function applied to a path expression.
The following aggregate functions can be used in the SELECT clause of an EJB QL query: AVG,
COUNT, MAX, MIN, SUM.
We will support these when the EJB 2.1 specification is finalized and we produce our J2EE 1.4 compatible implementation.

Specification for ejb-jar.xml

Hi,
can anyone pls send a link where I can find specification for this xml. A doc that lists the hierarchical relationship of the tags and explains the purpose of each tag.
could not find it on sun's website
thanx n regards

http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/ejb-jar_1_1.dtdThis is the DTD for EJB 1.1 specifications. You should atleast refer to 2.0 or 2.1 to make use of the specifications provided by most of the recent app servers.
Here's a link:
http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs70/ejb/reference.htmlYou might find a recent one on Weblogic 8.1 documentation.

EJB 3.0 lookup in Weblogic 10.3.0

Hello everyone,
1: Our application runs on Weblogic Application Server,version 10.3.0
2: In our system,we need to deploy an EJB conforming to the EJB 3.0 specification.
Please find the sample code for our UAT environment as below :
/*The remote interface*/
package com.serverside.ejb.session;
import javax.ejb.Remote;
@Remote
public interface ASimpleSessionBeanRemote {
     public void printThis(String print);
/*The bean class*/
package com.serverside.ejb.session;
import javax.ejb.Remote;
import javax.ejb.Stateless;
* Session Bean implementation class ASimpleSessionBean
@Stateless(name="ASimpleSessionBean", mappedName = "ASimpleSessionEJB")
@Remote(ASimpleSessionBeanRemote.class)
public class ASimpleSessionBean implements ASimpleSessionBeanRemote {
* Default constructor.
public ASimpleSessionBean() {
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
     @Override
     public void printThis(String print) {
          // TODO Auto-generated method stub
          System.out.println("ASimpleSessionBean : "+print);
3: The above files when packaged in jar get deployed on the server successfully.
4: As per EJB 3.0 specification,the deployement descriptors are not mandatory.Hence,the jar doesn't include ejb-jar.xml and weblogic-ejb-jar.xml
5: Please find below,the EJB3.0 annotations reference as per the Weblogic Application Server Documentation :
Annotation : @Stateless
Package: javax.ejb.Stateless
Attribute : mappedName
Description :
Specifies the product-specific name to which the stateless session bean should be mapped.
You can also use this attribute to specify the JNDI name of this stateless session bean. WebLogic Server uses the value of the mappedName attribute when creating the bean’s global JNDI name. In particular, the JNDI name will be:
mappedName#name_of_businessInterface
where name_of_businessInterface is the fully qualified name of the business interface of this session bean.
For example, if you specify mappedName="bank" and the fully qualified name of the business interface is com.CheckingAccount, then the JNDI of the business interface is bank#com.CheckingAccount.
6: Conforming to the above specification, the sample EJB deployed on our application server has the binding name(as reflected in the jndi tree) as follows :
ASimpleSessionEJB#com.serverside.ejb.session.ASimpleSessionBeanRemote
A jndi lookup using this name succeeds :
InitialContext.doLookup("ASimpleSessionEJB#com.serverside.ejb.session.ASimpleSesionBeanRemote");
7: Now,we want the binding name to be a simple string i.e the lookup must be something like :
InitialContext.doLookup("ASimpleSessionEJB");
8: To implement point-7,we tried using the ejb-jar.xml and weblogic-ejb-jar.xml as follows :
->ejb-jar.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ASCII"?>

9: Inspite of the point-8,the binding name remains as follows :
ASimpleSessionEJB#com.serverside.ejb.session.ASimpleSessionBeanRemote
10: Please guide us about the solution and implementation to attend point-7.
Thanks !

Hi,
I find distributed applications very interesting (even though this application of mine could just use sockets - it is nicer than EJB 2.1). You don't need the @Local DI and local interface if you only do remote - so here is some minimal hello world code that currently works on a test network of mine.
In this example I have provided only a remote stateless session bean and an SE client (could be a pojo or servlet).
The *@Stateful* SB has been converted to a *@Stateless* SB (now the state field doesn't really hold state as the container pools the SSB - but this is an unrelated issue as I an not using transactions yet anyway). The key is naming the SSB with the mappedName attribute so you can easily reference it - or just check your logs after you deploy the EAR containing the EJB in your EE server.
Note: WebLogic also registers a legacy EJB 2.1 compliant jndi name alias for you as well appsdirorg_eclipse_persistence_example_distributed_ClientEAR_earorg_eclipse_persistence_example_distributed_ClientEJB_jarNode_Home*
For your specific question about dependency injection (which is implemented by Spring AOP inside the server).
Use @Remote on your Remote inteface class
Use @Stateless on your session bean implementation class
Use @EJB to inject your stateless session bean into a servlet for example (I have not tried using @EJB on a POJO - it would need to be running on the WebLogic container in the WAR or EJB.jar - don't think that is supported - I have not tried @Resource or spring annotations for this yet)
This example (reduced to show a single remote server) uses a JNDI lookup to get a reference to the remote bean (full try/catch exception handlers in full code near end of post).
      Hashtable<String, String> aTable = new Hashtable<String, String>();
      aTable.put("java.naming.factory.initial","weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory");
      aTable.put("java.naming.provider.url", "beowulf5");
      Context aContext = new InitialContext(aTable);
      Object aRemoteReference = aContext.lookup("ejb/Node#org.eclipse.persistence.example.distributed.NodeRemote");
      NodeRemote aNode = (NodeRemote) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(aRemoteReference, NodeRemote.class);
      aNode.setState(0)); // remote method invocationI deploy an EAR containing the SSB on distributed servers on any EE container - I chose WebLogic 10.3.4.
I run an SE app that connects to a list of servers that that are running the remote stateless session bean. The code is very naive at this point, it does retry bad connections and it is not yet multithreaded - just a proof of concept for EJB 3 remote session beans.
The InitialContext RMI handshaking will take around 10 sec per server to setup - then you can do up to 200k remote EJB RMI invokacations per second/thread on my machine.
The @Local code is only required if you wish to optimize using your SSB on the same JVM.
The JPA peristence code can be ignored (no EJB 3.0 Entities)
I just discovered the forum code tag in square brackets after 2 years

Help needed in EJB

Hi friends ,
I need your help in EJB
I have to perform these operations
1) Calling an Appl Service from a EJB module.
2) Calling an EJB module from an Appl Service.
3) Basics of JNDI.
for the second part I am exposing the EJB module as an Web Service and then consuming it in the Application Service as an External Service(that EJB has a Session Bean with a local Interface that has some logic to be exposed ).(Any further suggestions for this !!!!)
1)But I still dont know how to call an Application Service from an EJB module .
3)And finally I have an Application Service which would have a JNDI strings pointing to the Local EJB Interfaces and I have to access any one string from a Application Service and call that Local EJB Interface(local EJB invocation)
So can anyone help me in these two areas
Please keep in mind that I am relatively new to J2EE.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
You need to change your application server specific
deployment descriptors.
If your ejb uses container-managed persistence then you need to creates
jdo resources in your application and also modify application server specific deployment descriptors.

Kodo 4 final release

Now that JDO2 has successfully passed the final ballot is
there any planned date for full JDO2 support in Kodo 4 ?
Thanks in advance,
Guido

Hi,
I just came across this link
http://weblog.infoworld.com/techwatch/archives/005738.html
Specifically:
"BEA is delaying the release of Kodo 4.0 until the EJB 3 (Enterprise
JavaBeans) specification is finalized, McBride said. That is expected in the
June timeframe. Version 4.0 features support for EJB 3 and JDO 2."
Would have been nice if this was also on the Solarmetric site or did I miss
it?
kind regards,
Christiaan
Yes, I have read some days ago.
And I didn't like it.
At this point, I don't think that BEA has a great commitment/interest on
its JDO2 implementation and on the JDO technology tout-court.
The facts are that the JPA implementation will be open source while JDO2
implementation, i.e. Kodo 4, will "wait" even if JDO2 spec have been
finally approved.
With BEA vote.
Guido.

EJB 2.1 in 904? 905?

I read the release notes for oc4j 904, but could not
decipher what J2EE standards are supported, specifically,
EJB2.1. Could someone tell me in which release the J2EE 1.4 specs are supported?

J2EE 1.4/EJB 2.1 is not final yet. We will have a developers preview with J2EE 1.4 support as soon as the specs get finalized in Fall.

J2EE 1.5 - EJB 3.0

1. Will EJB 3.0 be a part of J2EE 1.5?
2. When we can wait relase version of EJB 3.0 specification?

I wrote to Linda DeMichiel. She leads specifications of EJB 3.0:
Dear Artem,
We plan to release a Public Draft around the
end of June, and a Proposed Final Draft later
in 2005. EJB 3.0 will go Final when J2EE 5
does, in the first quarter of 2006.

Final Cut Studio 2: Requirements and Recommendations

Hello Final Cut Studio 2 Experts,
I'm considering purchasing Final Cut Studi 2, and to make sure that I'll benefit from the full range of specific application (FCS/motion/color...) and I'd like to ask few questions (5 main points) regarding requirements and recommendations. So, please be prepared for much reading as I am not an expert on the matter. I like to know if my computer accepts any further hardware parts highly recommended and if I can purchase and install them myself. And yes, you should also know that I intend to use a Panasonic multi-format (HD/SD) camera for capturing and exporting videos.
N.B. Please note that the full list of my Hardware contents appear at the bottom of this text.
THANKS IN ADVANCE for your expert advise!
So, here we go:
Application-Specific Requirements
Final Cut Studio
Capturing HD resolution video using the ProRes 422 format requires a Mac Pro with an Intel Xeon processor or a G5 Quad computer and a qualified third-party capture card.
1) Do I need an Intel Xeon processor? If yes, can I purchase and install the component by myself (like RAM)?

NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT, 7300 GT, 6600, 6600 LE, FX Go5200, or FX 5200 Ultra
For 16- and 32-bit rendering: a graphics card with at least 128MB of VRAM
2) Do I need one of the ATI Radeon 9800, 9700... or ATI Mobility Radeon? Why does my Hardware contents say ATI Radeon 9600, and not ATI Mobility Radeon 9600, is there a difference?
Color
The standard graphics card in any Mac Pro, 17-inch MacBook Pro, 24-inch iMac with Intel Core Duo, or 2.5GHz or faster Power Mac G5 Quad:
ATI Mobility Radeon X1600
ATI Radeon X1600

A display with 1680-by-1050 resolution or higher
A three-button mouse for full functionality
3) Do I need and ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 or ATI Radeon X1600?
DVD Studio Pro
For playback of DVD Studio Pro 4-authored HD DVDs: a Macintosh computer with a PowerPC G5 or Intel Core Duo processor
For writing finished projects to disc: an Apple SuperDrive or other DVD recorder
For writing finished projects to a double-layer disc: a double-layer-compatible recorder and double-layer media
For transporting HD projects to a replicator: an external drive or Internet transfer of the project’s disk image
For transporting SD projects that contain copy-protection or dual-layer features to a replicator: a DLT drive, external drive, or Internet transfer of the project’s disk image
4) Do I have an Intel Core Duo processor? Do I need an Apple SuperDrive?
What is a "replicator"?

SORRY, BUT MY PREVIOUS POSTING DIDN'T HAVE THE FULL LIST OF HARDWARE CONTENTS of my Power Mac G5.
Hello Final Cut Studio 2 Experts,
I'm considering purchasing Final Cut Studi 2, and to make sure that I'll benefit from the full range of specific application (FCS/motion/color...) and I'd like to ask few questions (5 main points) regarding requirements and recommendations. So, please be prepared for much reading as I am not an expert on the matter. I like to know if my computer accepts any further hardware parts highly recommended and if I can purchase and install them myself. And yes, you should also know that I intend to use a Panasonic multi-format (HD/SD) camera for capturing and exporting videos.
N.B. Please note that the full list of my Hardware contents appear at the bottom of this text.
THANKS IN ADVANCE for your expert advise!
So, here we go:
Application-Specific Requirements
Final Cut Studio
Capturing HD resolution video using the ProRes 422 format requires a Mac Pro with an Intel Xeon processor or a G5 Quad computer and a qualified third-party capture card.
1) Do I need an Intel Xeon processor? If yes, can I purchase and install the component by myself (like RAM)?
Motion
The standard graphics card in any Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, iMac with Intel Core Duo, Power Mac G5, or iMac G5; 1.25GHz or faster PowerBook G4; or 1.25GHz or faster flat-panel iMac:
ATI Radeon 9800, 9700 Pro, 9600 XT, or 9600 Pro
ATI Mobility Radeon 9700 or 9600
NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT, 7300 GT, 6600, 6600 LE, FX Go5200, or FX 5200 Ultra
For 16- and 32-bit rendering: a graphics card with at least 128MB of VRAM
2) Do I need one of the ATI Radeon 9800, 9700... or ATI Mobility Radeon? Why does my Hardware contents say ATI Radeon 9600, and not ATI Mobility Radeon 9600, is there a difference?
Color
The standard graphics card in any Mac Pro, 17-inch MacBook Pro, 24-inch iMac with Intel Core Duo, or 2.5GHz or faster Power Mac G5 Quad:
ATI Mobility Radeon X1600
ATI Radeon X1600
NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT, 7600 GT, 7300 GT, 6600, or Quadro FX 4500
A display with 1680-by-1050 resolution or higher
A three-button mouse for full functionality
3) Do I need and ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 or ATI Radeon X1600?
DVD Studio Pro
For playback of DVD Studio Pro 4-authored HD DVDs: a Macintosh computer with a PowerPC G5 or Intel Core Duo processor
For writing finished projects to disc: an Apple SuperDrive or other DVD recorder
For writing finished projects to a double-layer disc: a double-layer-compatible recorder and double-layer media
For transporting HD projects to a replicator: an external drive or Internet transfer of the project’s disk image
For transporting SD projects that contain copy-protection or dual-layer features to a replicator: a DLT drive, external drive, or Internet transfer of the project’s disk image
4) Do I have an Intel Core Duo processor? Do I need an Apple SuperDrive?
What is a "replicator"?
Application-Specific Recommendations
Motion
One of the following graphics cards is highly recommended:
ATI Radeon X1900 XT, X850 XT, X800 XT, or X1600
NVIDIA GeForce 7800 GT, 6800 Ultra DDL, 6800 GT DDL, or Quadro FX 4500
For 32-bit rendering: a graphics card with 256MB of VRAM or more
Color
The following graphics card is highly recommended:
ATI Radeon X1900 XT
Dual displays with 1920-by-1200 or higher resolution
5) Do I have one of the highly recommended cards ATI Radeon X1900 XT etc...? How do I get it and can I install it myself?
