How to run EJB through a ide and not command line

Question

I have been trying out a simple Cart EJB. I have no problem running the whole thing through command line using the runclient script. But when i compile and run the same code in my ide it chucks the following error
Caught an unexpected exception!
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: No object bound for java:comp/env/ejb/SimpleCart
     at com.sun.enterprise.naming.java.javaURLContext.lookup(javaURLContext.java:116)
     at javax.naming.InitialContext.lookup(InitialContext.java:350)
     at CartClient.main(CartClient.java:26)
Is there any reasons you cant run an EJB client code through an ide. This is the code i am using

Answer 1

Are you setting the system properties for your Java runtime in the IDE?
You might need some command-line options along the lines of
Djava.naming.provider.url=BAR -Djava.naming.factory.initial=FOO
Failing that you might have to do a global JNDI lookup instead of a local one but that'd be far from ideal.
