Dynamic session bean call

During our development, we're going to call some session beans, but not by the normal way. We have the session bean A, that contains some data such like the name for the remote and home interface and JNDI Name for a session bean B. It also contains the name of a method that shall be called in the session bean B. We can call the method using the specific classes for that (Class, Method, invoke, and so on). Our matter is: how to refer the session bean B in the "ejb-jar.xml" (and in "jboss.xml", since we use JBoss 3.0.0)? To invoke the session bean B, it must exist an "<ejb-ref>" tag in the "ejb-jar.xml", so that I can call the lookup and the session bean is found.
Can anybody help us, or tell where can we find some help?

  • Can CMT Session Bean call BMP Entity Bean in WebLogic 6.0?

              Hi
              Does anybody successfully use CMT Session Bean calling BMP +CMT Entity bean in
              WebLogic6.0? I have the following problem.
              Any idea will be appreciated.
              --Winston
              Let's say we have a Session bean SB, it uses container to manage the transaction.
              A method of SB will call an Entity Bean EB which adopts bean-managed persistence.
              Both SB and EB use CMT and all of their methods use "required" in the descriptor
              file.
              1. If the connection con.getAutoCommit() is true in the EB, then the transaction
              within SB cannot be rolled back as the ejbCreate() has already commit into the
              database.
              2. On the other hand if Connecton of EB con.getAutoCommit() is false, then container
              cannot successfully commit the transaction from SB's method, as EjbCreate and
              EjbStore() in EB are likely using the different database connections, which causes
              EbjStore() fail and the following error message will be sent to the Console:

    We did receive a 4.5.1 / 5.1 interoperability patch - but it wasn't quite 'seamless'.
    We never tried to use it.
    SOAP? Isn't that around 50 times slower than RMI?

    heard
    of people using WL ejbs from Tomcat. This issue has caused us to avoidusing
    WL ejbs in any future development which has any chance of ever beingused
    by any
    app server (WL included) that is not under the direct control of thedata
    center.
    I've been trying to convince the Architecture team here that we canuse WL
    EJBs
    and we can call them from other app servers - but can't seem to getany
    supporting
    statement from BEA (maybe I haven't tried hard enough).
    Anyway, a response from BEA would be appreciated.

  • Local Session Bean calling another local Session Bean in EJB 3.0

    Hi,
    In EJB 3.0, I am trying to do JNDI lookup of a local sesion bean from another session bean's helper class.
    I am not using @EJB injection mechanism here, as call to the local session bean is made in a helper class. Helper classes do not support resource injection.
    Following are the EJB class definitions used in my project. Call to "EJB3Local" made from "EJB1" fails as the "EJB2" helper class is calling "EJB1Local"
    @Stateless
    @EJBs({@EJB(name="EJB2Local", beanInterface=EJB2Local.class),
    @EJB(name="EJB3Local", beanInterface=EJB3Local.class)})
    public class EJB1 implements EJB1Remote, EJB1Local{
    public void findEJB3Local(){
    //1. JNDI lookup for EJB3Local ----
    //2. EJB3Local.someFunction()
    @Stateless
    @EJB(name="EJB1Local", beanInterface=EJB1Local.class)
    public class EJB2 implements EJB2Remote, EJB2Local{
    public void findEJB1Local(){
    //1. JNDI lookup EJB1Local
    // 2. Call EJB1Local.findEJB1Local method
    @Stateless
    public class EJB3 implements EJB3Remote, EJB3Local{
    public void someFunction(){}
    A remote call to EJB2.findEJB1Local() will invoke EJb1Local.findEJB3Local method and the call fails with "java:comp/env/EJB3Local" not found in EJB1Local.
    Has anybody encountered an issue like this issue with local interface calling another local interface?
    Thanks,

  • Stateless Session Bean calling another Stateless Session Bean

    Hi all,
    I have written 2 Stateless Session bean and would like to call the business method of 2nd Stateless Session Bean in the business method of the 1st.
    I have written the lookup code for 2nd SB in the business method of 1st SB and would like to execute the business method in the same method itself.
    What do I have to do for the same for the following :
    Deployment Descriptor file or any other file needs to be modified.
    I am using Weblogic 6.1 and SQL Server 7.0 as database.
    Thanks in advance,
    Seetesh

    This is actually quite similar to calling a session bean from anywhere.
    Try this
    //Session Bean 2 - Business Method, JNDI name SessionBean2
    public void doSomethingMore(String what)
    // Session Bean 1 which call.
    public void doSomething()
       InitialContext initCtx = new InitialContext();
       SessionBean2Home home2 = null;
       SessionBean2 bean2 = null;
       try
         home2 = (SessionBean2Home)initCtx.lookup("SessionBean2");
         bean2 = home2.create();
       }catch(FinderException ex){..}
        catch(CreateExceptrion ex){..}
       try
         bean2.doSomethingMore("Anything");
       }catch(remoteException ex){..}
    }In my case (webLogic 5.1) I did not need to change anything in any of the deployment descriptor. However, both beans needs top be deployed on same instance of Application server (might work across instances but didnt try)
    This should do it.

  • EJB 2.1 session bean calling EJB 3 session bean?

    I have a WL 10 (JDK 1.5/EE 5) server that has several EJB 3 stateless session beans deployed and working well. But now I need to allow a JBoss 3.2.3 (JDK 1.4) EJB 2.1 session bean make remote calls into these EJB 3 EJBs. Can this even work?
    It seems to me that EJB 3 calling EJB 2 would be fine, but not in the reverse?

  • Session management in session bean calling session bean

    Hi,
              I've got another question on transaction.
              I have following stateless session beans :
              session1 with trans-attribute Required.
              session2 with trans-attribute Required.
              session1 calls session2 and session3.
              session2 inserts/updates records in the database.
              What am doing is first I call a createSchedule method in session2, which
              creates a new record in the database.
              And then I call an update method on the session2 bean, that will fetch and
              update the newly created record.
              This second update fails, due to some database constraints.
              What I was hoping, that the record should not be created in the database,
              but it did.
              The first method call in session2 succeeded and the second failed !!
              Doesnt both the DML be part of one transaction ?
              Thanks
              Amit
              

    Solved this one too :
              What was happening was, Before I called the create method of the session
              bean, I was calling a find method, and I was capturing the exception, and in
              case theres an exception, assuming that there is no record in the database,
              I create a new record. This find method is in the same session bean,
              session2 along with the create and update methods. Inititally when there was
              no record, the session bean was raising EJBException, due to which the main
              session bean, session1, rollbacks the transaction, it started, but as I was
              catching this exception, so the execution continued, .... next statement
              being create, and as the transaction attribute of it was Required, and as
              the session1 bean's transaction has already been rolled back, there was no
              transaction, so the create method started its own transaction, and created
              the record, and then the update method too did the same, but it gave an
              error, so only update method's transaction got rolled back.
              So I changed the find method to throw FinderException, instead of
              EJBException, so the transaction of sessio1 bean is not lost.
              Its working now.
              But the other problem I posted, where I dont want to throw any exception to
              the client calling the session1 bean, I still havent figured it out, how to
              stop it, although am catching all the exceptions, still the client got
              exception.

  • Can a session bean call a database?? design issue

    Is there a thumb rule that all my database calls should be made through an
    entity bean ?
    I have data that needs to be saved across calls as well as persisted to the
    database. But the instance of the object is not going to be modified
    concurrently. So basically there is no problem of maintaining the
    consistency of data. The class itself takes care of it. Can I put all this
    in a STATEFUL session bean which calls my database ??

  • WLS 10 - When Session Bean calls another, original Exception is lost?

    I have a Stateless Session Bean that makes a call on another one. If an exception is thrown in that 2nd bean, the 1st bean receives an EJBTransactionRolledbackException back from it, but the original Exception that caused it is NOT wrapped by the EJBTransactionRolledbackException, but merely mentioned in that Exception's message.
    If another object - eg. a Servlet - calls one of these beans, the EJB exception contains the original exception wrapped.
    Why would the original exception be lost in the 1st case, but missing in the 2nd? Is this a bug?

    Your remote client passes a DefaultSession to AdminSession.initialize(..). This DefaultSession has to be a remote type. In your client, how does it get DefaultSession?
    Did your client look up DefaultSession, and have it return a (sessionContext.getBusinessObject(DefaultSession.class))? If so, it should work.

  • HOWTO: Using a BC4J Application Module in an Stateless EJB Session Bean

    HOWTO: Using a BC4J Application Module in an Stateless EJB Session Bean
    by Steve Muench
    Overview
    BC4J provides automatic facilities for deploying any application module as a stateful EJB session bean. If you want to leverage the features of your BC4J application module from a stateless EJB session bean, it's not automatic but it is straightforward to implement. This howto article explains the details.
    For our example, we will create a stateless EJB session bean that uses a container-managed transaction. To keep things simple, let's assume the session bean has a single public method on its remote interface named createDepartment() with the following signature:
    public void createDepartment(int id, String name, String loc) throws AppException
    AppException is an example of an application-specific exception that our method will throw if any problems arise during its execution.The goal of this article is to illustrate how to use the BC4J application module named com.example.hr.HRApp as part of the implementation of this createDepartment method on our stateless enterprise bean. Let's assume that the HRApp application module has a view object member named Departments, based on the com.example.hr.DeptView view object, based on the familiar DEPT table and related to the com.example.hr.Dept entity object so our view can be updateable.
    Creating the Stateless Session Bean
    We can start by using the JDeveloper Enterprise Bean wizard to create a new stateless session bean called StatelessSampleEJB implemented by:[list][*]com.example.StatelessSampleEJBBean (Bean class)[*]com.example.StatelessSampleEJBHome (Home interface)[*]com.example.StatelessSampleEJB (Remote interface)[list]
    We then use the EJB Class Editor to add the createDepartment method to the remote interface of StatelessSampleEJB with the signature above. We edit the remote interface to make sure that it also reflects that the createDepartment method thows the AppException like this:
    package com.example;
    import javax.ejb.EJBObject;
    import java.rmi.RemoteException;
    public interface StatelessSampleEJB extends EJBObject {
      void createDepartment(int id, String name, String loc)
      throws RemoteException,AppException;
    }Before we start adding BC4J into the picture for our implementation, our StatelessSampleEJBBean class looks like this:
    package com.example;
    import javax.ejb.SessionBean;
    import javax.ejb.SessionContext;
    public class StatelessSampleEJBBean implements SessionBean {
      public void ejbCreate(){}
      public void ejbActivate(){}
      public void ejbPassivate(){}
      public void ejbRemove(){}
      public void setSessionContext(SessionContext ctx){
      public void createDepartment(int id, String name, String loc) 
      throws AppException {
        // TODO: Implement method here
    }We can double-click on the ejb-jar.xml file in our project to see the XML deployment descriptor for the bean we just created:
    <ejb-jar>
       <enterprise-beans>
          <session>
             <description>Session Bean ( Stateless )</description>
             <display-name>StatelessSampleEJB</display-name>
             <ejb-name>StatelessSampleEJB</ejb-name>
             <home>com.example.StatelessSampleEJBHome</home>
             <remote>com.example.StatelessSampleEJB</remote>
             <ejb-class>com.example.StatelessSampleEJBBean</ejb-class>
             <session-type>Stateless</session-type>
             <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
          </session>
       </enterprise-beans>
    </ejb-jar>We need to add the extra <assembly-descriptor> section in this file to indicate that the createDepartment method will require a transaction. After this edit, the ejb-jar.xml file looks like this:
    <ejb-jar>
       <enterprise-beans>
          <session>
             <description>Session Bean ( Stateless )</description>
             <display-name>StatelessSampleEJB</display-name>
             <ejb-name>StatelessSampleEJB</ejb-name>
             <home>com.example.StatelessSampleEJBHome</home>
             <remote>com.example.StatelessSampleEJB</remote>
             <ejb-class>com.example.StatelessSampleEJBBean</ejb-class>
             <session-type>Stateless</session-type>
             <transaction-type>Container</transaction-type>
          </session>
       </enterprise-beans>
       <assembly-descriptor>
          <container-transaction>
             <method>
                <ejb-name>StatelessSampleEJB</ejb-name>
                <method-name>createDepartment</method-name>
                <method-params>
                   <method-param>int</method-param>
                   <method-param>java.lang.String</method-param>
                   <method-param>java.lang.String</method-param>
                </method-params>
             </method>
             <trans-attribute>Required</trans-attribute>
          </container-transaction>
       </assembly-descriptor>
    </ejb-jar>
    Aggregating a BC4J Application Module
    With the EJB aspects of our bean setup, we can proceed to implementing the BC4J application module aggregation.
    The first thing we do is add private variables to hold the EJB SessionContext and the instance of the aggregated BC4J ApplicationModule, like this:
    // Place to hold onto the aggregated appmodule instance
    transient private ApplicationModule _am  = null;
    // Remember the SessionContext that the EJB container provides us
    private           SessionContext    _ctx = null;and we modify the default, empty implementation of the setSessionContext() method to remember the session context like this:
    public void setSessionContext(SessionContext ctx){ _ctx = ctx; }We add additional constants that hold the names of the J2EE datasource that we want BC4J to use, as well as the fully-qualified name of the BC4J application module that we'll be aggregating:
    // JNDI resource name for the J2EE datasource to use
    private static final String DATASOURCE = "jdbc/OracleCoreDS";
    // Fully-qualified BC4J application module name to aggregate
    private static final String APPMODNAME = "com.example.hr.HRApp";We expand the now-empty ejbCreate() and ejbRemove() methods to create and destory the aggregated instance of the BC4J application module that we'll use for the lifetime of the stateless session bean. When we're done, ejbCreate() it looks like this:
    public void ejbCreate() throws CreateException {
      try {
        // Setup a hashtable of environment parameters for JNDI initial context
        Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
        env.put(JboContext.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,JboContext.JBO_CONTEXT_FACTORY);
        // NOTE: we want to use the BC4J app module in local mode as a simple Java class!
        env.put(JboContext.DEPLOY_PLATFORM, JboContext.PLATFORM_LOCAL);
        env.put(PropertyConstants.INTERNAL_CONNECTION_PARAMS,DATASOURCE);
        // Create an initial context, using this hashtable of environment params
        InitialContext ic = new InitialContext(env);
        // Lookup a home interface for the application module
        ApplicationModuleHome home = (ApplicationModuleHome)ic.lookup(APPMODNAME);
        // Using the home, create the instance of the appmodule we'll use
        _am = home.create();
        // Register the BC4J factory to handle EJB container-managed transactions
        registerContainerManagedTransactionHandlerFactory();
      catch(Exception ex) {
         ex.printStackTrace();
        throw new CreateException(ex.getMessage());
    }and ejbRemove() looks like this:
    public void ejbRemove() {
      try {
        // Cleanup any appmodule resources before getting shutdown
        _am.remove();
      catch(JboException ex) { /* Ignore */ }
    }The helper method named reigsterContainerManagedTransactionHandlerFactory() looks like this:
    private void registerContainerManagedTransactionHandlerFactory() {
      SessionImpl session = (SessionImpl)_am.getSession();
      session.setTransactionHandlerFactory(
        new TransactionHandlerFactory() {
          public TransactionHandler  createTransactionHandler() {
            return new ContainerManagedTxnHandlerImpl();
          public JTATransactionHandler createJTATransactionHandler() {
            return new ContainerManagedTxnHandlerImpl();
    }The last detail is to use the BC4J appmodule to implement the createDepartment() method. It ends up looking like this:
    public void createDepartment(int id, String name, String loc)
    throws AppException {
      try {
        // Connect the AM to the datasource we want to use for the duration
        // of this single method call.
        _am.getTransaction().connectToDataSource(null,DATASOURCE,false);
        // Use the "Departments" view object member of this AM
        ViewObject departments = _am.findViewObject("Departments");
        // Create a new row in this view object.
        Row newDept = departments.createRow();
        // Populate the attributes from the parameter arguments.
        newDept.setAttribute("Deptno", new Number(id));
        newDept.setAttribute("Dname", name);
        newDept.setAttribute("Loc", loc);
        // Add the new row to the view object's default rowset
        departments.insertRow(newDept);
        // Post all changes in the AM, but we don't commit them. The EJB
        // container managed transaction handles the commit.
        _am.getTransaction().postChanges();
      catch(JboException ex) {
        // To be good EJB Container-Managed Transaction "citizens" we have
        // to mark the transaction as needing a rollback if there are problems
        _ctx.setRollbackOnly();
        throw new AppException("Error creating dept "+ id +"\n"+ex.getMessage());
      finally {
        try {
          // Disconnect the AM from the datasource we're using
          _am.getTransaction().disconnect();
        catch(Exception ex) { /* Ignore */ }
    Building a Test Client
    With the EJB-Tier work done, we can build a sample client program to test this new stateless EJB Session Bean by selecting the bean in the Oracle9i JDeveloper IDE and choosing "Create Sample Java Client" from the right-mouse menu.
    When the "Sample EJB Client Details" dialog appears, we take the defaults of connecting to embedded OC4J container. Clicking the (OK) button generates the following test class:
    import java.util.Hashtable;
    import javax.naming.Context;
    import javax.naming.InitialContext;
    import com.example.StatelessSampleEJB;
    import com.example.StatelessSampleEJBHome;
    public class SampleStatelessSampleEJBClient {
      public static void main(String [] args) {
        SampleStatelessSampleEJBClient sampleStatelessSampleEJBClient =
           new SampleStatelessSampleEJBClient();
        try {
          Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
          env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
                  "com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory");
          env.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "admin");
          env.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS, "welcome");
          env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,
                  "ormi://localhost:23891/current-workspace-app");
          Context ctx = new InitialContext(env);
          StatelessSampleEJBHome statelessSampleEJBHome =
               (StatelessSampleEJBHome)ctx.lookup("StatelessSampleEJB");
          StatelessSampleEJB statelessSampleEJB;
          // Use one of the create() methods below to create a new instance
          // statelessSampleEJB = statelessSampleEJBHome.create();
          // Call any of the Remote methods below to access the EJB
          // statelessSampleEJB.createDepartment( int id, java.lang.String name, java.lang.String loc );
        catch(Throwable ex) {
          ex.printStackTrace();
    }We uncomment the call to the create() method and add a few calls to the createDepartment() method so that the body of the test program now looks like this:
    // Use one of the create() methods below to create a new instance
    statelessSampleEJB = statelessSampleEJBHome.create();
    // Call any of the Remote methods below to access the EJB
    statelessSampleEJB.createDepartment( 13, "Test1","Loc1");
    System.out.println("Created department 13");
    statelessSampleEJB.createDepartment( 14, "Test2","Loc2");
    System.out.println("Created department 14");
    try {
      // Try setting a department id that is too large!
      statelessSampleEJB.createDepartment( 23456, "Test3","Loc3");
    catch (AppException ax) {
      System.err.println("AppException: "+ax.getMessage());
    }Before we can successfully run our SampleStatelessSampleEJBClient we need to first run the EJB bean that the client will try to connect to. Since Oracle9i JDeveloper supports local running and debugging of the EJB-Tier without doing through a full J2EE deployment step, to accomplish this prerequisite step we just need to right-mouse on the StatelessSampleEJB node in the System Navigator and select "Run". This starts up the embedded OC4J instance and runs the EJB right out of the current out path.Finally, we can run the SampleStatelessSampleEJBClient, and see the output of the test program in the JDeveloper log window:
    Created department 13
    Created department 14
    AppException: Error creating dept 23456
    JBO-27010: Attribute set with value 23456 for Deptno in Dept has invalid precision/scale
    Troubleshooting
    One error that might arise while running the example is that the database connection information in your data-sources.xml for the jdbc/OracleCoreDS datasource does not correspond to the database you are trying to test against. If this happens, then double-check the file .\jdev\system\oc4j-config\data-sources.xml under the JDeveloper installation home directory to make sure that the url value provided is what you expect. For example, to work against a local Oracle database running on your current machine, listening on port 1521, with SID of ORCL, you would edit this file to have an entry like this for jdbc/OracleCoreDS :
    <data-source
        class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource"
        name="OracleDS"
        location="jdbc/OracleCoreDS"
        xa-location="jdbc/xa/OracleXADS"
        ejb-location="jdbc/OracleDS"
        connection-driver="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
        username="scott"
        password="tiger"
        url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:ORCL"
        inactivity-timeout="30"
    />This is the data-sources.xml file that gets used by the embedded OC4J instance running in JDeveloper.
    Conclusion
    Hopefully this article has illustrated that it is straightforward to utilize the full power of BC4J in local mode as part of your EJB Stateless Session Beans using container-managed transaction. This example illustrated a single createDepartment method in the enterprise bean, but by replicating the application module interaction code that we've illustrated in createDepartment, any number of methods in your stateless session bean can use the aggregated application module instance created in the ejbCreate() method.

    The full code listing for the SampleStatelessEJB bean implementation class looks like this:
    * StatelessSampleEJB
    * Illustrates how to use an aggregated BC4J application module
    * in local mode as part of the implementation of a stateless
    * EJB session bean using container-managed transaction.

    Hi Steve, It4s me again;
    About the question I made, I tried with a single assembly-descriptor tag and a single container-transaction tag in the deployment descriptor of the session bean and these were the results.
    java.lang.NullPointerException
         void com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIConnection.EXCEPTION_ORIGINATES_FROM_THE_REMOTE_SERVER(java.lang.Throwable)
         java.lang.Object com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIConnection.invokeMethod(com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIContext, long, long, java.lang.reflect.Method, java.lang.Object[])
         java.lang.Object com.evermind.server.rmi.RemoteInvocationHandler.invoke(java.lang.Object, java.lang.reflect.Method, java.lang.Object[])
         java.lang.Object com.evermind.server.rmi.RecoverableRemoteInvocationHandler.invoke(java.lang.Object, java.lang.reflect.Method, java.lang.Object[])
         java.lang.Object com.evermind.server.ejb.StatelessSessionRemoteInvocationHandler.invoke(java.lang.Object, java.lang.reflect.Method, java.lang.Object[])
         void __Proxy1.modificaEnvoltura(java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.String)
         void SamplemdeController.envolturaControlEJBClient.main(java.lang.String[])
    Then I tried with multiple assembly-descriptor tags each with a single container-transaction tag and the results were:
    java.lang.NullPointerException
         void com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIConnection.EXCEPTION_ORIGINATES_FROM_THE_REMOTE_SERVER(java.lang.Throwable)
         java.lang.Object com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIConnection.invokeMethod(com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIContext, long, long, java.lang.reflect.Method, java.lang.Object[])

         java.lang.Object com.evermind.server.rmi.RecoverableRemoteInvocationHandler.invoke(java.lang.Object, java.lang.reflect.Method, java.lang.Object[])

         void SamplemdeController.envolturaControlEJBClient.main(java.lang.String[])
    Finally I tried with a single assembly-descriptor and multiple container tags and the results were:
    java.lang.NullPointerException
         void com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIConnection.EXCEPTION_ORIGINATES_FROM_THE_REMOTE_SERVER(java.lang.Throwable)

         java.lang.Object com.evermind.server.rmi.RecoverableRemoteInvocationHandler.invoke(java.lang.Object, java.lang.reflect.Method, java.lang.Object[])
         java.lang.Object com.evermind.server.ejb.StatelessSessionRemoteInvocationHandler.invoke(java.lang.Object, java.lang.reflect.Method, java.lang.Object[])
         void __Proxy1.modificaEnvoltura(java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.Integer, java.lang.String)

    How can I make my Stateless Session bean work out?

  • Parallel Processing in Session Beans?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to do a simple use case of processing (saving 1000s) of records. Essentially, MY session bean calls another session bean synchronously which does the saving. I'm iterating over 1000s of records and one by one calling the second session bean - which I feel is very inefficient. I'd like to break up the 1000 records into chunks of 200 records - hence thought of starting 5 worker threads to save these records in parallel. All the 1000 records have to be in a single transaction and hence I can't use MDBs. And I know I can't start Threads in EJBs.Any suggestions?
