Can I use UserTransaction within a CMP Session bean?

Basically the problem is as follow:
I have the following method in a Statefull session bean:
public Whatever do()
processSomething();
notify();
the notify() basically notifying the client that then query for the something that was processed in the processSomething() method.
THE PROBLEM is that the changes have not been committed yet as the do() method is not finished yet and the container has not committed the changes.
THE QUESTION is - can I use UserTransaction inside
processSomething to commit the changes and leave the bean as CMP? I want to leave it as CMP as there are more methods on the bean and I don't want to have to manage the transactions for them.
Anyone has any other ideas?
Thanks in advanced.

Hi again,
The EJB specs say that a stateful Session Bean with CMT is NOT allowed to use the UserTransaction; see page 361 of the EJB2.0 specification. So combining them will not (or should not) work.
I suggest CMT+SessionSynchronization combined with using a flag to indicate whether notify should be called or not. Otherwise, you could try splitting up the bean into two beans: one with CMT and another one without. The one without CMT could use the UserTransaction and notify.
Also, you might want to check http://www.onjava.com/pub/a/onjava/2001/10/02/ejb.html
Hope that helps a bit,

How to get the UserTransaction object in stateless session bean

Hi, I am using jboss server and jdk5 version and using EJB.
My Application flow :
JSP à Action(Struts) à Service Locator à Session bean à Entity Bean(cmp) à DB.
I tried to get the UserTransaction object in my Action. Its my code.
InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
UserTransaction uTrans = (UserTransaction) ctx.lookup("java:comp/UserTransaction");
After used uTrans.begin(),uTrans.commit() and uTrans. rollback () also.
Its working fine .
But, I used the the same code inside in my session bean its not working.
Stateless Session Manager Bean code :
public class SampleManagerBean implements SessionBean {
public void ejbCreate() throws CreateException { }
public void ejbRemove() { }
public void ejbActivate() {   }
public void ejbPassivate() {   }
public void setSessionContext(SessionContext sessionContext) {
this.sessionContext = sessionContext;
     public void createSample() throws EJBException
     try{
               InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
               UserTransaction ut = (UserTransaction) ctx.lookup("java:comp/UserTransaction");
          }catch(Exception e) {
          System.out.println( Exception === > +e)
Its throws the error ie: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: UserTransaction not bound
How to get the UserTransaction object in my session bean. Kindly give solution the above errors.
- Thendral

first of all, you could just use sessionContext.getUserTransaction(). however, that would only work if your bean is using bean-managed transactions. the default is container-managed transaction, in which case you cannot get a UserTransaction object. if you want to manage transactions, you need to add the TransactionManagementType.BEAN annotation to your ejb.

How can I set the value to a session bean from backing bean

Hi Experts,
How can I set the value to a session bean from backing bean where I have created getter and setter
methods for that variable.
Basically I am using ADFUtils class where I am able to get the value from session bean
using following expression
String claimType =
(String)ADFUtil.invokeEL("#{ClaimValueObj.getClaimType}");
Thanks

Security problem when trying to connect a CMP Session Bean deployed on J2EE

I am working through Wrox�s book Professional java Mobile Programming and trying to set up the Mobile Positioning project. The book has instructions for Ericson MPS-SDK 3.0 but the only version available now is the 5.0 and these instructions are no longer valid. I have built the application with the Studio 4 IDE and deployed it on an instance of the J2EE reference Implementation and this seems to work fine. However I have built a CMP session bean which should connect to the Ericsson Emulator running on their supplied Eserver and this connection is failing with a security problem. Following is a snippet of the code I have used to instantiate the connection.
ConnectionFactory con = null;
con = new ConnectionFactory(true);
The code compiles with out errors but when I try to test it I get the following error
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.util.PropertyPermission sun.net.inetaddr.ttl write)
Any Hints or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Oops!! I meant Session Bean NOT CMP Session Bean

Can we call a method in stateless session bean ?

Can we call a method in stateless session bean in onMessage method?

Hi,
The purpose of service locator is to abstract the lookup of the server side services like ejb and DSNs. It should be a normal java class but as such there is no such restriction. You can have a look at the service locator patter at the j2ee blue prints.

Yes. I have added;

It fails because the locater to the blob, obtained by findBYPrimaryKeyis
null.
i.e. an empty_blob() is not created.
Have you got CMP to access Blobs in WLS 6.1?

Use direct JDBC with CMP entity bean in one transaction

I am trying to use direct JDBC call with CMP entity bean within a session
bean method that requires transaction. The problem is that it appears these
are not in the same transaction. When I use the JDBC call, the CMP entity
bean update to the DB has not been committed yet.
We are using Weblogic 5.1 SP6. The DB is Oracle.
What I do for the JDBC is get a new connection from the pool using weblogic
jdbc pool driver.
Any help would be appreciated.
Patrick

Hi. You can do JDBC and invoke CMP EJBs and have this all treated
as one transaction, if your hand-written code explicitly starts
a JTS transaction, then uses the jts driver or a TxDataSource to
get the JDBC connection. Then your code can call transactional
EJBs and their work will be included in the transaction you started.
Assuming the bean work went OK, and your manual JDBC went OK, you
can manually commit the UserTransaction at that time. This is 5.1
talk. For 6.0, with @PC, this may be even easier...

Is there any way to use JDBC with CMP Entity bean in the same transaction?
Patrick
"L'artiste" <[email protected]> wrote in message

Are you calling all the CMP create in the session Bean ? If so, beforeyou
make the JDBC call from the session bean, the CMP in 2. should commit. Try
to set its attribute to TX_REQUIRES_NEW. This way, the calling client will
block until this transaction is done (committed) before the execution
continues. There might be some overhead involved in doing so if you are
anticipating a lot of users.

What I am trying to do is:
In a Session bean method -
1. create a new CMP entity bean (a new row in DB table)
2. create another new CMP entity bean that uses previous bean as foreignkey
3. use JDBC to update the row just created
And all these 3 calls have to be in one transaction.
Thanks,

Using local interfaces for EJB (session bean)

Hi,
I�ve a question regarding when to use the Local interfaces(EJBLocal and EJBLocalHome) of a enterprise bean. I understand that calls to enterprise bean can be made locally if the client which is invoking is in the same JVM as that of EJB. I�ve written a web client (servlet) which is packaged in a EAR and this servlet is trying to invoke a session bean which is in a �different� EAR using local interfaces. Both the EARs have been deployed in a single server (websphere 6.0 server). It didn�t work for me this way�..If I package the servlet in the same EAR of session bean then it works fine.
So is this to say that both EARs are not running on the same JVM? Or should it work even if the client and the session bean are in different EARs but in same server?
Can anyone explain me the fundamentals behind this.
Thanks in advance

Local access is only portable within the same .ear. For example, the Java EE SDK and SUN's
application servers have never supported local EJB access from a web/EJB component in a different
.ear. One issue is that local access requires that both the caller and target EJB have the same
classloader. By definition, different Java EE applications have distinct classloaders. In addition,
in Java EE 5 persistence context propagation does not span applications, so it wouldn't work in the
local case.

Losing UserTransaction state in Stateful session bean

I have a UserTransaction I wish to begin and commit in different methods of a Stateful session bean. I have 2 methods to test this on the session bean:
public void beginTransaction()
trans = context.getUserTransaction() ;
trans.begin() ;
public void commitTransaction()
trans = context.getUserTransaction() ;
trans.commit() ;
If I call these methods from one Perform method in a Struts action all works fine. If I call the methods in different Struts actions (storing the session bean handle on the HTTPSession in the first for retrieval in the second) the second call fails with the following exception:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: No active Transaction
The state of the transaction on the second call is STATUS_NO_TRANSACTION. I am certain that I have lost no state on the session bean and that using handles gives me the correct bean since I have written some state to test this. Basically something seems to close the transaction between the end of the first Perform method and the beginning of the second (I am of course assuming this is a valid thing to do).
My session bean descriptor has <transaction-type>Bean</transaction-type>, and I am using OC4J.
If anyone can point out what it is I am doing wrong I would be grateful!
James.

Sorry, I have re-checked my code and I believe I found the problem.
I was beginning my transaction inside ejbCreate() and trying to commit/rollback in another method. This works in JBoss 3.2 but does not work in either OC4J or WebLogic 7.
If I begin my transaction in a business method and commit/rollback in another method, everything works fine. (It also seems to work fine in 9.0.3 this way).
So I am not sure whether this is a bug in 9iAS/WLS, or a bug in JBoss, or something that is left "vague" in the J2EE spec. Unfortunately, examples on bean-managed transactions are thin on the ground generally (the usual advice being not to use them, which I definitely agree with!).
If you believe that the behaviour I describe is a bug in 9iAS, I can send a simple EJB test case.

Using only one method in session bean to create web service

Hi all,
I hhave a scenario where i am inserting and retrieving data from dict table using web service.
For this i have created a session bean and a wrapper class.
The session bean has two methods: insertRecords(), and viewRec().
so while creating a web service i need to include two methods.
I want to have only one method where i can pass a parameter as operation and if it is "I", then i can call the insert method and if it is "S" i can call view method.
I tried doing that bt i am stuck up with the return type.
Insert method has return type as array of wrapper class and
view method has wrapper class as return type ...
Is this scenario possible..??
or is there any other way to do this???
Plz let me knw..
Thankls n regards,
Ankita

Hi Siddharth,
Im really sorry..
i cudnt get u ..
Actually these r methods:
public DemoDicModel[] viewRecords()
and
public DemoDicModel insertRecords(
          String title,
          String desc,
          String status)
and im trying this:
public DemoDicModel[] getMethods(String operation,String title,String desc, String st)
DemoDicModel[] demoModel =null;
DemoDicModel model = new DemoDicModel();
if(operation == "show")
      demoModel = viewRecords();
if(operation == "ins")
      model = insertRecords(title,desc,st);
      model.setMsg("RECORDS GENERATED");
      demoModel=
return demoModel;
im stuck up with insert operation.
can u plz explain me in detail.

Can we implement "Service Locator" in Stateless Session Bean??

To increase the performace , I think of implementing "service Locator" pattern so as to cache the EJBHome objects in order to avoid looking up Home object every time. I want to know whether this will work out in case of stateless session bean??
Thanks for ur help.

Screenshots for Search option using Enity object(donot want session bean)

I want to create Entity object(donot want session bean and Enity diagram) with search option. so any one help me. i could not find (b13895_oracle10g) PDF

Can you elaborate a little more?
Do you mean ADF Entity objects or EJB entities from tables?
For ADF Entities -
You can create Business components from tables wizard from the New gallery and follow the steps. This creates your entites which are xml files and also view objects for which data controls get created, which you can then use in your jspx.
For EJB entities though you need to create a session bean or a service facade.

Using TableLocking API in Stateless Session Bean through WD application

Hi All,
We have develpoed a webDynpro application which involved Jav Dictionary Table.
We have given UI for Creation, Updation and Deletion of the table.For database connection we have used Stateless Session Bean.
we have the requirement of Locking the Table record when one user is either editing or deleting the record of Table from UI, so any other user cannot update or delete the same record.
To implement the above functionality, we have used TableLocking API with lifetime as userSession in the Stateless Session Bean to acquire a Lock for particular record.
With lifetime as usersession the record should get unLocked automatically, if the session of application is expired and record is not unLocked Explicitly.
We are calling the Session Bean from Webdynpro application to acquire a lock, When the Dynpro application expires the locked record should get unlocked automatically as the lifetime is defined as usersession,But the record remains unlocked only even after expiration of the application sessionand deadlock occurs for that record.
So if anyone can suggest the solution for the above problem.
Or some other method to Lock Particular Record from application.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Shruti.

GridControl;JBO: How can i use ArrayAccess within custom renderer for GridControl

When i use ArrayAccess for access rows around current, or to
access to hidden columns in rendering row, within
TableCellRenderer, then my program stays in infinite loop in
this TableCellRenderer. But when i use same code to plain print
query results, all work fine.
Here's my code:
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,
Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int
row, int column) {
__null:
if (value != null) {
dataItemView.setViewStart(row);
int[] k = {0,interested_column};
ImmediateAccess ia = (ImmediateAccess)
arrayAccess.getItemByCoordinates(k);
cur = ia.getValueAsObject();
if (cur == null) cur = ia.getValueAsString();
if (cur == null) break __null;
My debug printing shows that after setViewStart(row),
getViewStart() != row.
Is there any available sources for Oracle JBO implementation of
InfoBus ?
P.S. also in renderer, when ImmediateAccess holds String, then
getValueAsObject() returns null, why ???
