Calling Entity bean from Session

Does anyone have a demo of how a SessionBean locates the home of an EntityBean in OC4J? None of the demos seem to illustrate this. My demo worked in JBoss but not OC4J. I am not sure of the Context lookup string and how it is configured (application-client.xml?)
Thanks,
Pat

My suggestion is to put some System.out.println() statements and see if the output helps in any way in debugging. I can't think of anything on the top of my head although I have been working lightly on SunONE.
By the way, you referred the stateless bean as CMP. Just wanted to tell you that you are wrong. The terms CMP and BMP refer to persistence, which is applied to Database tables and not to stateless/stateful session beans which are written for some specific purpose independent of underlying database.

Hi,
The Transaction Rollback exception may be due to the SystemException thrown in your findUserRoles() code which force the container to rollback the transaction. catch the generic exception in your findUserRoles() code and veriy what went wrong.
i hope this helps.

Entity Beans and Session beans to represet Business lOgic

How cam we implement Entity Beans and Session beans to represent Business Logic.
Can anyone explain how can we do this.
Regards...

I have session beans calling method in entity beans and any client
doesn't have access to entity beans, only via session beans.
If i define security policy and method permissions for session beans
only, do entity beans use that permissions when calling their methods
from sessions beans OR should i define the security policy for entity
beans separately?If you want to set the permission on individual
methods of entity bean ( with different roles)
you have to do it separately.
If you want to delegate the Authenticated user along with
the method call to the Entity Bean you can use
run-as-identity-principal.
For more detail please check out the EJB2.0 Spec.

How to remove Bean from session upon leaving the web page?

Hi...
I got the following problem
I promote a user with a Datatable filled with data, each time the user enters the webpage with the table I go the DB and retrieve all relevant data again (so each time the user gets an OnLine representation of the DB)
to archive that I defined the bean that pulls data from DB in Request scope. and it worked well... but now i added an option to export the table into Pdf made by a servlet.... now to be able to get the bean from the servlet i had to change the scope of the Bean to Session Scope... and all works fine.. BUT... now the page not showing OnLine representation of the DB.. cause its only created once , cause its inside Session Scope...
My question is how can I remove the Bean from Session scope upon the user leaving the page (I don't want to remove the bean from session scope on the next called bean of the other page) i want to remove the Bean upon leaving the current web page... Or maybe force the constructor to be executed each time the Page is loaded (as if it was a Request scope bean)....
Any ideas?
Thanks ahead!
Daniel.

Hi,
When you are moving to another page, you are performing an action right ?
(i mean the request moving to Server side), if you do so, then clear the bean object values list.
for example :
private List<Integer> intList = new ArrayList<Integer>();
public void clear()
intList.clear();
or
store a new object in session, when ever u moved to the second page, so that the old object will be no longer
in use, so it will be garbage collected.Regards,
Sathya.

EJB 3.0: CMP Entity bean from view

Hi,
I have created an entity bean from a database view.
I don't have a good filed to use as id in my view. So I want to generate the id in my entity bean.
How can I do this ?
Thanks

Hi,
I didn't get your question.
CMP is something, which can be done by hand.
So maybe it is better, to do it manually.
Bea has some workaround, I am sure.
Maybe it is something with deployment descriptors, which
have to be configured to the underlying database.
Sorry for my stupid first answer.

Generating an Entity Bean from a Database Table

I am following the tutorial "How Do I: Generate an Entity Bean from a Database
Table?" and in that process doing the "Configuring a Data Source". This is the
message I get when I configure a data source per the tutorial and click OK. This
data source exists and the information is correct that I have supplied.
Do I need to put the MS jars somewhere to enable this?
See attached file

I've just figured it out. An input source also takes a Reader in its constructor. I was thinking that it only took an InputStream, and as the Serializer requires you to set a Writer on it, I was finding it impossible to convert between bytes and chars. Now, I have simply set a blank CharArrayWriter on the Serializer, got a char[] from it once the Serializer has written the Document to the stream, and then constructed a CharArrayReader with this char[]. It works fine now. Not that anyone read the problem anyway cos I solved it a few minutes after I posted it. Considering it first cropped up about 4 months ago and it has been niggling ever since, I am pleased!

I would try this with the newest service pack since it seems this assertion does
not exist in later code lines. It appears to be related to a class loader
issue. Do you know what version of the Java VM Delphi uses?

CMP entity beans from tables in 9.0.3 jdev preview

I am trying to generate CMP entity beans from oracle tables using 9.0.3 jdeveloper preview. My oracle db version is 9.2. I notice that if a table has a single column primary key, no xxxPK.java file is created. However, if the primary key is multi-column an xxxPK.java file is created. Is this correct behavior? I expected an xxxPK.java file to be created regardless of the number of columns in the primary key for the table. Has anyone else noticed this? I am new to EJB so forgive my ignorance.

Comparing to JDev 902, I think this is a much better decision. Having to change beans with a single field PK to not using a custon PK class, to avoid using that class was a pain in JDev 902. There4s little benefit in using a custom class when there4s only a single field in it... some will say that it prevents having to do majot changes to your code if the PK changes in the future and add another field. But a careful database design will void this almost completely. So having JDev 903 use a java native class is a better option in this situation. At least from my personal point of view.

Create CMP Entity Beans from Tables Wizard - Can't see any tables with DB2

Hi,
I'm trying to use the "Create CMP Entity Beans from Tables Wizard" to create an entity from a table in a DB2 database. The problem is, on page 2, I can't see any available tables. I have verified that the connection works (I can open the connection in the Navigator frame and I can see that table).
Note that if I try this wizard on an Oracle database, I can see tables.
WTF? Can someone please help?

I second the motion. I too work in an environment with centralized data management (DBA's) that create and maintain all tables under a generic schema. This has prevented me from using the Create Entity Beans from Table feature of Jdev r3 preview.
At least I can see that I'm not alone.
Thanks
When I select the "Create CMP Entity Beans from Tables Wizard," no tables or views are available to select. The JDev database connection is using an ID assigned to me.
The tables that I am looking for were created by the DBA under his ID and are therefore in that schema. He did create Public Synonyms for them, but the tables still do not show up in the wizard.
Is there a configuration step that I need to do to have those tables show up?
Tables created by a DBA and then accessed by developers using a public synonym is a very common scenario and should be supported by JDeveloper (IMO).
Thanks.
I'm using JDev 9.0.2.8.2.

Calling stored procedure from session bean method

I have a situation like this :
I have one method on a stateless session bean (and I mark this method as container managed transaction). For database related stuff, I am not using entity beans, I am using my own layer of OR mapping. This method does a lot of stuff and it involves many trips to the database, as a result of which the performance is very poor. I have identified certain pieces of functionality from this method which I think can be moved to stored procedures, while some of the functionality can still remain in the session bean method. So my scenario is like this :
session bean method start
store some data in tables(using my OR layer)
call the stored procedure
session bean method end
My question is :
Will the data that I am storing in tables from within the session bean method, be available to the code executing inside stored proc.
secondly, how do I sync the transcation which is being initiated by the container with the transaction under which the stored proc is executing or is it that the stored procedure code will also be executing under the container managed transcation.
Thanks
Vimal

Hi Vimal,
Will the data that I am storing in tables from within
the session bean method, be available to the code
executing inside stored proc.There's only one way to find out (isn't there?)
secondly, how do I sync the transcation which is
being initiated by the container with the transaction
under which the stored proc is executing or is it
that the stored procedure code will also be executing
under the container managed transcation.Again, why not just "suck it and see!"
[Or is there some reason why you can't?]
As I interpret the EJB specification, if the transaction attribute for your session bean method is such that it starts a transaction, then that transaction will be terminated when the method completes -- and every operation that occurs within the framework of that method will be in the one transaction.
In other words, your database stored procedure should execute within the same transaction as your O/R mapping layer.
However, how OC4J behaves may not exactly follow what is written in the (EJB) specification. Hence I repeat, "try it and see for yourself".
Put it this way: as far as I know, the only way that your stored procedure would NOT see the changes made by your O/R mapping layer is if they both executed in separate transactions and the O/R mapping layer did not commit its changes before the stored procedure began its execution.
Hope this has helped.
Good Luck,
Avi.

Problems accessing fields in a CMP entity bean from a session bean

Hello everybody,
I'm getting the next problem: when I try to access a field in a CMP entity bean that I have instantiated from a session bean (trhoug entitybean.getNameOfField), I get the error "the entity bean does not exist in the database".
This entity bean is accessing a table in an external database (not the DB of the WAS), but I know that it's getting the correct data from the table, since I check the entitybean.size() and the entitybean.findByPrimaryKey(), and I get the right information. For some reason, the only thing that it doesn't work in the entity bean are the getter/setter methods (I created them automatically after having created the entity fields).
I access the entity bean through its local interface...
I know it's really difficult to give an answer with so few details, but... does anybody think I forgot something important to configure??
Thank very much in advance!!
Isidro

getter and setter methods for cmp-fields are abstract.

Do JNDI look up for entity beans from a session bean in different jars
