How the ejb is bound to JNDI name

Question

I am very new to Oracle App server. In weblogic, we declare the jndi-name of an EJB in weblogic-ejb-jar.xml file.
I did not see this in OC4J.
Actualli I have written a simple stateful session bean and trying to access it through a standalone java client. But don't know what to look up in JNDI.
HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

Hi Vinay,
Your question has been asked (and answered) many times previously in this forum. (However, when I tried searching the forum archives, I only got three results!?!)
The below code shows how to perform a lookup of the "home" interface of an EJB from a stand-alone, non-deployed java client:
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,
        "com.evermind.server.rmi.RMIInitialContextFactory");
props.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,"ormi://<host>/<app_name>");
props.put(Context.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL,"admin");
props.put(Context.SECURITY_CREDENTIALS,"<admin_password>");
new InitialContext(props).lookup("<home_name>");where "<host>" is the name of the machine where OC4J is running;
"<app_name>" is the name you gave to the application when you deployed it;
"<admin_password>" is the password for the "admin" user (that you supplied when you installed OC4J);
"<home_name>" is the value of the "<ejb-name>" element from your "ejb-jar.xml" file.
I have assumed that you have not set up any special security for your application -- otherwise you need to change the values for the SECURITY_PRINCIPAL and SECURITY_CREDENTIALS properties.
I have also assumed that you are using the stand-alone version of OC4J.
Good Luck,
Avi.
