Flow of sessiob bean and entity bean

Hi All,
Can any one help me how is the flow of session and entity beans i.e
What method is called first and what method is called next.
There are so many methods like create(),ejbcreate(),
ejbActivate(),ejbPassivate(),ejbDelete() etc.
What is the flow of these methods and when they are called.

Hi vasudulla,
If you can, go to the bookstore and look for the book:
Entreprise JavaBeans 3rd Edition by Richard Monson-Haefel.
In the Appendix B, you can see the State and Sequence Diagrams, all the things you want to know about the Flow.

  • How many ejbCreate() can be in Session and Entity Bean???

    Hi,
    How many ejbCreate() method can be in a Session and Entity
    Bean???
    How many can be in Stateless and Stateful SessionBean???
    How many can be in CMP and BMP SessionBean???
    Thanks,

    How many ejbCreate() method can be in a Session
    ion and Entity
    Bean???For Stateful Session Beans and Entity Beans, as many as you'd like.
    Stateless Session beans can only have one, since their ejbCreate methods can not take any parameters.
    >
    >
    How many can be in CMP and BMP SessionBean???If you mean CMT/BMT(Container-Managed transactions / Bean-Managed Transactions), then
    the answer is the same. The create method requirements are independent of the transactional nature of the bean.
    If you really mean CMP/BMP(Container-Managed Persistence / Bean-Managed Persistence) , it doesn't apply to session beans, only entity beans. However, even for entity beans, CMP vs. BMP has no bearing on the rules regarding # of create methods.

  • 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.

  • JSF and entity beans

    I'm trying to create an application using JSF for the presentation layer and entity beans and stateless session beans in the model layer using CMP, for deployment with JBoss. I'm basically stuck though on the communication between the backing bean and the session bean (where do I define the JNDI names, the database connection etc). Can anybody suggest a good tutorial/example showing JSF with EJBs?

    Well I was interested in the same topic, I once thought `Sun Java Studio Creator EA2` will have an easier approach ... well it dun seems easy to me neither.
    Anyone of you tried acheiving the purpose by using that approach b4?
    I'm currently working on a `JSF-based portlet` project with `entity beans + managed beans` ... well its very much source shared ... but I'm still green :P
    Anywhere, I'm starting a new thread called `JSF Portlet developement` in my blog (`http://avatar21.superihost.com`), feel free to comment(any ideas will be mostly appreciate).
    Regards,
    Avatar
    there is no specific support in JSF for EJBs.
    the definition of connection pools and other JNDI
    resources are subject to the servlet spec which JSF
    is built on top of.
    you can find usefull examples in the sun J2EE
    tutorial.

  • Bean Managed Entity Beans(EJB) using Tangosol.

    I am trying to use Bean Managed Entity Beans using Tangosol Coherence.
    The entity bean is currently configured in the weblogic-ejb-jar.xml with:
    <max-beans-in-cache>200</max-beans-in-cache>
    In the public void ejbLoad() method, I am calling the Tangosol Cache to load the entity bean.
    If we have have more that 200 request coming at the same time, we get an OutOfMemoryError exception.
    Is there anyway to overcome this limitation by somehow having the ejb cache to use the tangosol cache?
    Thanks for any help in advance.
    Krishan

    So far, it's not immediately obvious to us what the exact problem is that you are seeing. It sounds like the VM would be using at least 200MB just for the application server's own internal cache, for example, and that you are also using Coherence within the application server to provide additional caching.
    If possible, we should set up a phone call with you and your team, and we could get an engineer from our end to walk through your specific use case with you, so that we could understand what the exact technical challenge(s) is(are) in this particular application.
    Peace.

  • Does WLS 6.1 sp2 allow (bean managed) entity beans to have transaction mode NOTSUPPORTED?

    Hi,
    I have created two bean managed entity beans, User and Role, abstracting users
    and groups in a ldap base. A User may have more than one Role. This is represented
    by a (bean managed) 1:many relationship directed from User to Role. For some weird
    reasons I get a transaction rollback when reading data, when transactions are
    turned on (REQUIRED).
    While we where running WLS 6.1 sp1 we had no problems with this as we could set
    transaction to NOTSUPPORTED for these two EJBs. Due to other hickups we had to
    upgrade to sp2 and suddenly the error reappears leading me to believe that NOTSUPPORTED
    isn't allowed anymore by the WLS. I know that NOTSUPPORTED isn't required by the
    EJB spec, but containers may support it and obviously WLS used to do just that.
    I have not seen any change in the release notes of sp2 that indicates that this
    behaviour has changed.
    Does anybody know if WLS really doesn't support NOTSUPPORTED for enity beans anymore
    in sp2?
    If anybody are curiuos or have any good ideas, the stacktrace I get is:

    WLS support NotSupported on Entity Beans.
    It looks like you've hit a bug in the EJB container where an internal Collection class has been modified while the
    container is running through an iterator on it.
    You should open a case with [email protected]

  • What is difference between Managed Bean and Backing Bean?

    What is difference between Managed Bean and Backing Bean? Please guide me how to create them and when to use them?
    Please post sample for both beans.

    Hi,
    managed beans and backing beans are quite the same in that the Java object is managed by the JavaServer Faces framework. Manage in this respect means instantiation. The difference is that backing beans contain component "binding" references, which managed beans usually don't. Do backing beans are page specific versions of managed beans.
    Managed beans are configured either in the faces-config.xml file, or using ADF Faces and ADFc, in the adfc-config.xml file

  • When to use Custom Adapter, Event Beans and Spring beans

    Hi,
    I have basic question on when or on what basis/scenario the Custom Adapter, Event Beans or Spring beans should be used.
    All three has same implementation methods.
    Please help me in understanding when to use Custom Adapters, Event Beans or Spring beans.
    Thanks,
    Sri
    Edited by: 897694 on Mar 7, 2012 8:12 AM

    custom adapters:
    you have to use a custom adapter when you don't find any adapter in ocep which will serve your purpose.
    Most of the times you use an adapter to connect the application with external things like http server, etc It can be both to listen the events or to send the events outside.
    Event Beans:
    This type of beans does most of the work that an adapter code does but in convention beans are not used to connect the application with external stuff
    You can use Beans as event sink etc In this case using an using an adapter is not suggestable.
    If you implement Interfaces like Initializing Bean for an adapter code it won't work properly, you have to use an event Bean in that case.
    Spring beans:
    Spring beans are used when the bean code doesn't implement EventSink or EventSender.
    These beans are used to enable something (eg: make ${wlevs_dev_home}/abc/a/b.java this path is not understandable by java code unless you override the path using a spring bean)
    Most of the things which doesn't need a connection between components in the application (eg cache loader: you can do this using spring beans and event beans both but spring beans doesn't need a connection with cache)
    Hope this small writeup helps you :)

  • Urgent :Worker Bean and Invoker bean entry is not present

    All,
    We are using SOA Suite 10g. I want to configure the reciever and listener threads for Worker Bean and Invoker Bean in SOA_Oracle_Home
    \j2ee\home\application-deployments\orabpel\ejb_ob_engine\orion-ejb-jar.xml . But when I opened this file in our production env I could not see these entries.
    a) Without these entries, the BPEL processes are getting instantiated. In the absence of these entries, does it consider any default settings for receiver and listener threads for this
    b) We are facing performance issues in our environment. For that I want to tune these settings. Do I need to add these entries manually.
    c) If so, what are all things that will be required to specify these entries

  • Difference between a Managed Bean and Backing Bean

    hi
    i am new to JSF made my 1st appl today ...
    couldnt clearly understand difference between a Managed Bean and Backing Bean , anybody know the difference?
    Regards
    dsdsf

    These are two terms that means the same .... A backing bean is a normal web term, in JSF specifically it is termed as managed bean as this' backing bean' configurations in faces-config.xml are termed within 'managed-bean ' tags.
    Cutting the long story short its a bean class . period :)

  • 8.1.7 and Entity Beans. Where is Patch 8.1.7.1???

    I would like to be able to deploy CMP Entity Beans to 8.1.7 on Solaris using JDeveloper 3.2.2
    The release notes indicate that this is a bug and is awaiting a patch. My two questions are:
    1. When can we expect Patchset 8.1.7.1 for Solaris?
    2. Could someone please describe for me the best way to write a CMP Entity Bean in JDeveloper 3.2.2 (w/descriptors & JAR'ed etc...) and then use the Oracle Command Line tools to load this bean? ie. what are the pitfalls?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thx alot..
    When will JDev 3.2 be available for evaluation download ?
    (The firm im working for is about to buy a complete system from the east, and i need to know how things perform before recommending purchase of system/archtecture and oracle tools).
    Incedently, i experienced a problem with session beans on 8.1.6, if i killed my client app somewhere along a lookup and remote.create the sessionbean would completely die, only thing to do was to redeploy it(not even reboot cured it) (i could create it, but reading serilized objects gave a marshall exception every single time..)
    I want to know if this is a known issue? and if it is, has it been 'fixed' in 8.1.7?
    By the way, everything is running on localhost on a win2k pro box.
    Thx alot for your time.

  • Proxy object and entity Bean interaction

    Hello,
    I'd like to have some precisions on the interactions between the proxy object (client) and the entity bean(server):
    - does J2EE provides ways for a bean to manage clients, to define roles and permissions, lock, etc ... ? What informations an entity bean can know about the clients ?.
    - how does the context mechanism work on the entity bean side ?
    - how does an entity bean identify different clients ? how does it recognize one from another ? I mean if client c1 and client c2 use same entity bean B, how B can manage different roles for c1 and c2, and how can B returns specific values to a particular client.
    Thx.

    If you can read some tutorial, you will get all the information.
    I'll suggest a book EJB by richard manson publicvations oreilly.
    The activities you are talking about is responsibility of container and user developed bean are totally absytracted from this system level activities.
    Primary service include security which take care of activities like Authentication, access control and secure communication.
    for role based access control u have container providing the identity by Principal object. DDescriptors declare which logical roles are allowed to access even perticular method of the bean.
