Call ejb from another class?

Question

there are some codes form someone I dont understand, can anyone help me out ?
the class Call will run on the same VM as the CMP entity bean Subscriber. what I am not sure is the call in method f2() , i.e. s.setName() will really wirte data to databank, since the lookup was done in getScriber(), and not visible in f2()!
Am I right ?
public class Call {
pubic void f1(){
Context jndiContext = new InitialContext();
public void f2 (){
Subscriber s = getSubscriber(); // 1
s.setName(); // 2
private Subscriber getSubscriber(){
SubscriberHome sHome = (Subscriber)jndiLookup("SubscriberEJB"); // 3
Subscriber sb = sHome.fineByPrimaryKey(1);
}

Answer 1

call in method f2() , i.e. s.setName() will really
wirte data to databank, since the lookup was done in
getScriber(), and not visible in f2()!Can't say this for sure, unless I have a look into the setName() method. It doesn't seem to be taking any argument, and that's certainly not the same as setName(String name). It might be actually doing something meaningful. Better take a closer look.
public class Call {
pubic void f1(){
Context jndiContext = new InitialContext();
public void f2 (){
Subscriber s = getSubscriber(); // 1
s.setName(); // 2
private Subscriber getSubscriber(){
SubscriberHome sHome =
(Subscriber)jndiLookup("SubscriberEJB"); // 3
Subscriber sb = sHome.fineByPrimaryKey(1);
}Rich.
