Dependency inject a EJB 2.x bean with EJB3

Hi there
I have an old EJB3 2.x bean deployed on my server, that is registered in JNDI with the name "abc/xyz/ItemLookup_v35".
Now I wrote a EJB3 SFSB bean and I want to access the old bean using dependency injection. I tried it with the annotation
@EJB(mappedName = "abc/xyz/ItemLookup_v35")
private ItemLookupRemote itemRemote;but it wasn't working. How can I explicitly set the JNDI name of an old bean, that I want to lookup for?
Any help is appreciated!
Regards,
Stephan

You can use @EJB to access 2.x Remote views, but the field type has to be the Home interface.
@EJB(mappedName = "abc/xyz/ItemLookup_v35")
private ItemLookupHome itemHome;

Dependency Injection of EJB in application client

Hello,
I did a quick search and did not find a similar posting on this. I apologize if I missed one.
I wrote a simple stateless session bean based on EJB 3.0 specification. I wrote a simple client called TestCVTApplication. I am hoping to inject this EJB. Here is how I defined my application-client.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application-client xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
                    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

                    version="1.4">

        <ejb-ref-name>cvt.server.HelloBean</ejb-ref-name>
        <ejb-ref-type>Session</ejb-ref-type>

        <injection-target>
            <injection-target-class>cvt.client.TestCVTApplication</injection-target-class>
            <injection-target-name>helloEJB</injection-target-name>
        </injection-target>
    </ejb-ref>
    <callback-handler>
        cvt.client.MyCallbackHandler
    </callback-handler>
</application-client>When I run my client, I am getting the below exception
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.InstantiationException: Injection of multiple references to the same target[class = cvt.client.TestCVTApplication, field/property = helloEJB]
Thanks for your help.
Mustafa

Injection is required to be supported in Application Client main classes. This error probably means you have defined two different dependencies that have the same target field name in the main class. Did you put an @EJB annotation in the main class in addition to adding the ejb-ref in the application-client.xml? You should just use either one or the other. Also make sure that the field in the main class has a "static" modifier.

WSIF calling EJB 3.0 beans, with JAXB 2.0.2 as the JavaSerializer

I'm working with SOA suite (10.1.3.1.0 [build #0 ]), and I am trying to allow my BPEL processes to call my EJB 3.0 stateless session beans via WSIF.
This works fine when I am passing primitives (strings, dates and so-forth) between BPEL and my EJB's using WSIF.
However I want to be able to pass my 'business objects" across the BPEL/EJB boundary directly. I started off by following the BPEL cookbook article "Using WSIF for Integration" which was usefull in showing how to use JAXB 1.x generated classes across the BPEL/EJB boundary.
However in the project I am working on we want to use JAXB 2.0 as it allows us to create an XML schmea binding directly from our existing "business objects".
So I am using the knowlege gained in the article mentioned above to implement a custom JavaSerializer for my bpel process that will use JAXB 2.0. My custom JavaSerilizer is being invoked correctly, when I invoke my BPEL process, but it is unable to load the correct JAXB (2.0.2) classes - it keeps getting the JAXB 1.0 classes that come standard with oracle.
My debug code that prints out the classloaders for my serializers (and parent classloaders) reports the following:
06/09/05 11:18:18 CustomSerializer.serialize
06/09/05 11:18:18 Classloader =oracle.bpel.common:10.1.3
06/09/05 11:18:18 Classloader =api:1.4.0
06/09/05 11:18:18 Classloader =jre.extension:0.0.0
06/09/05 11:18:18 Classloader =jre.bootstrap:1.5.0_06
The Jaxb classes it is loading a coming from classloader:
06/09/05 11:18:18 JAXBContext classloader =oracle.xml:10.1.0_2
My question is how do I get the JAXB 2.0 classes in my classpath?
Thanks,
Dave Oram

Hello,
About WSIF, we are currently working on a WSIF-EJB30 binding that will allow you to direclty annotate the session ben and get the EJB exposed as SOAP and WSIF binding out of the box.
This will be available in OracleAS 10.1.3.1 production.

EJB calling Spring Bean with non XA Datasources causing Rollback Exception

We have an EJB CMT with Required calling a spring bean (@Transactional Propagation.NOT_SUPPORTED). This is causing an Rollback Exception saying 2 phase commit must be enabled. The EJB has to write to datasource 1, but the Spring Bean is ready only on Data Source 2. The Data Sources are set to use Non XA Driver with Support Global Transaction enabled for One phase commit. Any help is appreciated.

Conditional dependency injection in EJB 3

Hi friends
I want to inject a session bean if a condition is true.
what can i do it ?

Hi Saeed,
There is no such capability in Java EE 5. If at deployment time the bean class and/or its associated
ejb-jar.xml has metadata that indicates injection, injection will take place.

EJB 3.0 Why Dependency Injection doesn't work?

Hello Every body,
i have a serious problem with dependency injection with EJB 3.0. I have tried so many time to get the simple sun delivered samples ejb-Applications working in NetBeans IDE, but they don't. After importing in building the projects in NetBeans, i get a NullPointerException while trying to run them. Is there any body who have experience with this? What am i making wrong?
I searched for an answer since several days in google without any success. I have not found a single satisfactory explanation. I can't explain why even the examples in the java ee tutorials don't work.
Please, can somebody help? I would very greatful.
Cheers

Here is an example of application (that don't work because the injection failed):
* This is the business interface for Confirmer enterprise bean.
@Remote
public interface Confirmer {
void sendNotice(String recipient);
@Stateless
public class ConfirmerBean implements Confirmer {
private static final String mailer = "JavaMailer";
private static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(
"confirmer.ejb.ConfirmerBean");
@Resource(name = "mail/myMailSession")
private Session session;
/** Creates a new instance of ConfirmerBean */
public ConfirmerBean() {
public void sendNotice(String recipient) {
try {
Message message = new MimeMessage(session);
message.setFrom();
message.setRecipients(
Message.RecipientType.TO,
InternetAddress.parse(recipient, false));
message.setSubject("Test Message from ConfirmerBean");
DateFormat dateFormatter = DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(
DateFormat.LONG,
DateFormat.SHORT);
Date timeStamp = new Date();
String messageText = "Thank you for your order." + '\n'
+ "We received your order on "
+ dateFormatter.format(timeStamp) + ".";
message.setText(messageText);
message.setHeader("X-Mailer", mailer);
message.setSentDate(timeStamp);
// Send message
Transport.send(message);
logger.info("Mail sent to " + recipient + ".");
} catch (MessagingException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
logger.info("Error in ConfirmerBean for " + recipient);

Try rebooting your computer. I had something similar. I rebooted my computer and it finished the update. Good luck!

Dependency Injection Problem in EJB 3.0

Hello.
I've been trying to get an example of java dependency injection working in JBoss 4.0.5.GA. I've installed it with EJB 3.0 support.
The problem is that if I try to use the injected resource, I get a null pointer exception.
The example I'm trying is a very short and simple one. Shouldn't be hard to figure out what is going wrong. Here it goes:

Hello Ken.
I gess dependency injection is unnavailable in servlets as of this moment. I conducted another test using a session bean that injects and tests the DataSource and a servlet calling the session bean via a refference obtained from InitialContext. It worked OK.

EJB 3.0 Dependency Injection and reentrant Calls on SFSB

Hi there
I have a SFSB (Bean A) that injects another SFSB (Bean B) with the @EJB annotation. Now Bean A does reentrant-calls on Bean B, which is ok, because it just asks for the current state.
This results in a "javax.ejb.EJBTransactionRolledbackException: Illegal attempt to make a reentrant call to a stateful session bean from home: .....; nested exception is: javax.ejb.ConcurrentAccessException: Illegal attempt to make a reentrant call to a stateful session bean: ....."
Now I added a weblogic-ejb-jar.xml with the section:
<stateful-session-descriptor>
<allow-concurrent-calls>true</allow-concurrent-calls>
</stateful-session-descriptor>to enable reentrant calls on my SFSB. Unfortunatly this leads to problems with the DI, it simply doesnt work anymore!!! The message now is " java.lang.IllegalStateException: Cannot find object BeanBInterface with java:comp/env/ejb/BeanBInterface". Obviously the DI didn't work, the local variable isn't filled anmyore.
Is this a bug of WLS 10.0 MP1 or a feature? Should I open a bug report? Any tips a welcome!

There is currently no possiblity in Weblogic 10 server web layer to use Dependency Injection on any other component than the ones defined in web.xml s.a.:
- servlets
- listeners
- filters
See here:
http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs100/webapp/annotateservlet.html
A simple POJO class part of the web application (such as a Backing Bean in JSF or an Action in Struts for example) is not benefiting from DI.
Doesn't this make Weblogic 10 a NON JEE 5 compliant server?
Why was this restriction imposed?
And how is one supposed to use DI with a simple POJO class? Why this huge inconvenience?

EJB 3.0 Dependency Injection in JSF ?

Hi,
I have a question about ejb 3.0 dependency injection in a JSF WebApp:
I Build successfully a Web Module (version 2.5) an EJB Module (version 3.0) and an EAR Module (Version 5.0). The EAR App can be deployed without errors on a Bea WebLogic Server 10.1. All modules are successfully deployed.
Inside the Web Module there is a Servlet which uses dependency injection to access the session EJB form the EJB Module. This works perfect.
Next I try to use the same EJB with dependency injection from the JSF Page via a backing bean. But when I try to access my JSP Page I got a Nullpointer Exception.
It seems that the Dependency Injection in the JSP App did not work?
Can anybody give me a hint what could be wrong?
Thanks
Ralph

ADFc 11g: EJB Dependency injection

Hello everyone,
I'm using a managed bean which references a stateless session EJB 3.0:
public class MyManagedBean {
@EJB
private SessionEJB ejb;
}If the bean is managed by JSF (ie. is registered in faces-config) then the EJB is injected correctly, but if the EJB is managed by ADF (ie. is registered in adfc-config) then there is no dependency injection. Does anybody know why this is so, and if there is a clean solution to the problem?
Searching the forum, Duncan Mills recommends a bean managed with faces-config in which the EJBs are injected, and then use managed properties to inject those EJBs in the ADF-managed beans.
Re: Accessing session beans from a managed bean
Is there a better/simpler solution?
Thanks!
Juan Manuel

Thank you.
The link helped.
The one thing i did was created a remote interface for the ejb, which showed up in jndi and then used spring DI to inject a reference to the EJB from jndi.
Will using a remote interface (instead of a local interface) cause performance issues?

Dependency injection in a Bean (MVC)

Hello,
Is it possible to use dependency injection in a bean (MVC architecture) ?
I use it in a servlet, but I failed to use it in a bean !
Thank you for your help.

depends on which JEE specification you use. JEE6 has the CDI specification which can do what you want. JEE5 can only do dependency injection in "know server resources", such as servlets, EJBs, MDBs and JSF backing beans. Note that CDI is separated from the specification and thus can be used without having a JEE6 capable server; look into "Weld" which is the reference implementation of the CDI specification.
http://www.seamframework.org/Weld
Before CDI there was the Spring framework that could do it by the way, so that is also something that is worth investigating.

Problem in dependency injection with Jboss4.2.1

Hi,
I have an application that uses an EJB named -JBejbBean(SLSB)
which implements a remote interface JBejb.
I have used JDeveloper 10.1.3 IDE for developing it.
JBejbBean contains a method
public String show()
return "hello";
Now at the viewController side
I have a JSF page whose backing bean ---view.backing.Start--- that looks up the above EJB using dependency injection as follows
@EJB(mappedName="current-ejb-ear/JBejb/remote")
private JBejb obj;
this returns an exception that says .....
Injection on Backing bean failed .
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException:view.backing.Start not bound.

Hi All,
I just got an e-mail from Zinio:
Hello,
Thanks for contacting Zinio Customer Support.
We have fixed the problem that was causing your magazine to appear blue in areas that should not have been blue. We’re very sorry for the inconvenience.
Thank you,
Emilia
Zinio Customer Support
After removing the bad issues and downloading them again, the problem was fixed, everything looks fine now! Unfortunatly it is not clear how this was fixed, there has been an update of the Zinio app (1.9.3) but the list of updates and fixes did not mention this problem.
I'm very happy this has been addressed in relatively short time and that this problem in particular didn't need an update of the iOS.
Hopefully the same will be true for all other apps having this PDF rendering issue.

EJB 3.0 client side dependency injection

Hi,
I develop an EJB 3.0 based enterprise application using Sun Java System Application Server. The application includes a Swing based client to be launched via Java WebStart. The client has to access some of the EJBs. Is it possible to use dependency injection on client side (see the @EJB annotation) and if yes how do I set the properties for this?
The following snipped hopefully explains what I mean. The class FastEntry is a class of the Swing client. My question is how can I get the deviceSessionBean initialized?
public class FastEntry extends javax.swing.JFrame {
@EJB
private static DeviceSessionRemote deviceSessionBean;Kind regards,
Matthias

Hi,
For callbacks and interceptors, you can look at this page : http://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2005/08/18/ejb3.html
For sending messages, I'd recommend to use JMS (if in clientSide), or EJB3 Message beans if in server side.
Hope that helps :)

CMP Entity Bean with ejb-ql finder methods and INFORMIX database

Hi,
I have some CMP Entity Beans with finder methods defined in ejb-ql. In my ejb-jar, within <entity> definitions I have something like:
    <entity>
      <abstract-schema-name>BeanName</abstract-schema-name>
      <cmp-field><field-name>fieldOne</field-name></cmp-field>
      <cmp-field><field-name>fieldTwo</field-name></cmp-field>
      <query>
        <query-method>
          <method-name>findAll</method-name>
          <method-params></method-params>
        </query-method>
        <ejb-ql>SELECT OBJECT(o) FROM BeanName o</ejb-ql>
      </query>
    <entity>
And in persistent.xml:
<db-properties>
     <data-source-name>datasource_name</data-source-name>
</db-properties>
<entity-bean>
     <ejb-name>BeanName</ejb-name>
     <table-name>table_name</table-name>
     <field-map key-type="NoKey">
     <field-name>fieldOne</field-name>
     <column><column-name>column_one</column-name></column>
      </field-map>
     <field-map key-type="NoKey">
     <field-name>fieldTwo</field-name>
     <column><column-name>column_two</column-name></column>
      </field-map>
      <finder-descriptor>
          <method-name>findAll</method-name>
          <method-params/>
     </finder-descriptor>
Once deployed, on server side, I can found a java source file (with corresponding compiled class file) in path:
j2ee/cluster/server0/apps/companyName/MyEARApp/EJBContainer/temp/temp38837373733/route/to/package/
with names:
BeanName0_0pm.java
BeanName0_0PM.class
and the generated java file contains this code:
public java.util.Enumeration ejbFindAll() throws javax.ejb.FinderException, javax.ejb.EJBException {
    TransactionContext tc = pm.getTransactionContext();
    Connection conn = null;
    PreparedStatement pSt = null;
    ResultSet ejb_rs = null;
    int status = javax.transaction.xa.XAResource.TMSUCCESS;
    try {
      conn = pm.getConnectionForFindMethod();
      pSt = conn.prepareStatement("SELECT \"O\".\"COLUMN_ONE\",\"O\".\"COLUMN_TWO\", FROM \"TABLE_NAME\" \"O\"");
      ejb_rs = pSt.executeQuery();
I'm trying to call this method but it throws a SQLException when preparing the statement.
It seems that Informix does not like this SQL syntax because of upper case names, doble quotes on table alias, or something else.
When editing persistent.xml in netweaver, I can define the element <datasource-vendor> as ORACLE, SAPDB, MS_SQL_SERVER, DB2_UDB_AS400 or DB2_UDB_OS390 but INFORMIX is not an accepted value.
Is there any way to define how this SQL query is build?
Thanks in advance.

The return type of the finder method defined in the remote home interface is either the entity bean's remote interface or a collection of objects implementing the entity bean's remote interface. The return type of the finder method defined in the local home interface is either the entity bean's local interface or a collection of objects implementing the entity bean's local interface
