JCo 3.0 Server and Stateless Session Bean

Hello,
I use JCO (3.0) and I need to integrate SAP with JBoss.
The SAP Module is calling EJB-Services over JCo.
How would the architectur looks like?
I start with using an MBean to start and stob the native JCO-Server over JMX.
This still works.
But it doesn't work:
The Client(SAP) calls the JCoServer (works fine).
But the call off the EJB failed.
What solutions do you have to share?
Do you use a stateless session bean?
Best regards
Peter

The program ID should be with length 8 max

How to get stateful and stateless session bean in second jsp

I create stateful session bean in the first jsp, then how can I get the stateful session bean in the second jsp? I find that somebody store the bean in HttpSession.
If I store the stateful session bean in HttpSession, then I can get it in the second jsp. My problem is that I can store the stateless session bean in HttpSession, and get it in the second jsp. Then, both stateful and stateless can maintain the state in the second jsp. What is the difference between stateful and stateless session bean in this case ?
I understand the definition of stateful and stateless session bean, but I'm confuse how to use session bean. Can anyone provide sample jsp to show difference of stateful and stateless? How the stateful session bean can maintain the state for the client?

Greetings,
I create stateful session bean in the first jsp, then how can I get the stateful session bean in the
second jsp? I find that somebody store the bean in HttpSession.Which is the correct scope for sharing client-specific data when 'request' scope is insufficient.
If I store the stateful session bean in HttpSession, then I can get it in the second jsp. My problem is
that I can store the stateless session bean in HttpSession, and get it in the second jsp. Then, bothWhy is that a "problem"? Does your application not require the stateless bean to be shared? If so, then don't store the EJBObject reference in the session...
stateful and stateless can maintain the state in the second jsp. What is the difference betweenWhat do you mean by this exactly?..
stateful and stateless session bean in this case ?Statefulness of session beans is in regard to maintaining client state (er, in all cases). If your "stateless" bean is receiving information from the client (i.e. its caller) - either through a create method or a business method - and that information is available (retrievable from the bean) on subsequent method calls, then that bean is, in fact, stateful - regardless of how it is deployed.
I understand the definition of stateful and stateless session bean, but I'm confuse how to use
session bean.The correct question, it here seems, is "when" to use which type... Use a "stateful" bean when information about (from) the client (i.e. the caller) must be maintained across method calls of the bean. Use a "stateless" bean for general business methods that do not depend on "prior knowledge" of the client (i.e. the caller).
Can anyone provide sample jsp to show difference of stateful and stateless? How the statefulA "sample JSP" would yield nothing additional... The semantics of calling, using, and "persisting", bean references are always the same - regardless of type or class. However, the reason(s) for using one over the other depends entirely on the needs of your application.
session bean can maintain the state for the client?I recommend that you spend more time learning about EJBs generally. In particular, it seems you require more fundamental understanding of their scope and lifecycle. Refer to sections 4, 6, and 7 of the EJB 2.0 Specification.

Difference between stateful and stateless session beans

can any body explain simply what is the difference between stateful and stateless session beans? also in what kind of situations we can use these.

Hi
This is the classificatio os Session Bean.
(1) Statfull
(2) Stateless
Stateful means u will persists the state of the object.
USESE:
In a Banking system u can use the statful session just for maintaing the
state.
(2) STATELESS: that's mean u do't want to persists any state of the object. that's mean a single Request is coming ,do the desire and give the output.
EX: A Credit Card System is the Example of Stateless.
May it will helpfull to understands u. if any need write here

Hot delpoyment with TopLink and Stateless Session Beans

What is the recommended procedure for making hot deployment of Stateless session beans work with toplink in WLS 7.0sp1 and oc4j (9.0.3)
My current setup is as follows using WLS 7.0sp1:
A stateless session bean is accessing toplink enabled persistent java classes via the SessionManager. I'm currently using the class loader of the stateless session bean:
* Method in stateless session bean
* Return the TopLink Session (based on the wls stateless session bean demo)
public Server getSession() {
return (Server)SessionManager.getManager().getSession("ejb_sessionbean", this.getClass().getClassLoader());
Everything is working as such. My session bean can read and write the persistent java classes. However if I redeploy the stateless session bean jar file the toplink session is not reinitalized. This means that new settings in the session.xml are not used. I addition I get other errors.
I'm having toplink on the server classpath. The toplink enabled persistent classes are in the stateless session bean jar file.
Thanks
Henrik

This is a recent post note I found on the same topic:
It all hinges on whether the TopLink ServerSession class has
been loaded by a classloader which is actually thrown away
during the hot deployment process. If this is the case, then
hot deployment causes the ServerSession to go out of scope
and finalize methods take care of logging it out properly.
If you deploy your TopLink Project on the Sytem class path then
it definately won't work. You'd have to restart the server every time.
But if the TopLink Project is deployed inside of an .ear file
and if you pass the correct ClassLoader to the
SessionManager.getSession( .... ) call then TopLink Session will
be re-started when you hot deploy the .earBased on this, the solution might be to deploy your EJBs in an ear file. Everything else looks OK. Can you try this and let us know?
Thanks,

Hello Freind
The main different b\w stateful and statless is that stateful maintain state of method conversation means it has record that which method call before this method
but in case of stateless conversation state does not saved second different we can say that create method in stateless having no parameter but statefull having parameter I think u can understand easily

How to use jta in toplink and stateless session bean EJB 3.0?

I have an application with techologies jsf,stateless session bean, adf, toplink
generated by toplink workbench.
In web side ı want to use two methods in stateless session bean which are updated
different tables. I call these methods in my page backing bean.
I also want to JTA in web side. My first methods is done correctly, but second method has an error. I wanto to rollback all transaction.
How can ı do that? with using JTA in Toplink...

Did you manage to solve this? I'm doing something similar and seeing the same problem, although they're up to 7.3 SP7.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Stateless session beans and idle timeouts (weblogic 10.3.1)

Need clarification about stateless session beans and the idle-timeout-seconds setting.
Situation is this – we have a process that is timing out due to an API call to a very slow Authentication server.
I am trying to resolve this with a code change, but need to further other understand what the server is actually doing.
We have a session bean which calls another which is calling a util class that does all the work and returns the results back up to the initial session bean. I have left out the ejbName in these examples (it’s irrelevant here).
Example:
SessionBean1 // basically called just once a day
@Session(defaultTransaction = Constants.TransactionAttribute.SUPPORTS,
enableCallByReference = Constants.Bool.TRUE,
type = Session.SessionType.STATELESS,
transTimeoutSeconds = "0",
initialBeansInFreePool = "0",
maxBeansInFreePool = "20")
Methods
@RemoteMethod() public boolean getUserList(String adminGroup) {
Map usrList = getUserList(adminGroup);
Private Map getUserList(String adminGroup) {
     return SessionBean2.getUsers(adminGroup);
SessonBean2
@Session(defaultTransaction = Constants.TransactionAttribute.SUPPORTS,
enableCallByReference = Constants.Bool.TRUE,
type = Session.SessionType.STATELESS,
transTimeoutSeconds = "0",
initialBeansInFreePool = "3",
maxBeansInFreePool = "20")
Method
@RemoteMethod() public Map getUsers(String adminGroup) throws RemoteException {
return javaUtilClass.getUsers(adminGroup);
JavaUtilClass
Method
public Map getUsers(String adminGroup) throws RemoteException {
     // This is where the work happens, calling the Authentication server to get a complete
     // list of users for an admin group. When the user list is around 1500 entries, this can
     // take an hour. Did I mention this server is very slow? It’s about this threshold of 1500
     // that causes the timeout.
     return Map of users
First thought, just bump the idle-timeout-seconds setting for the session beans (from the default 600), but that would be a temporary solution until the user list grew larger.
Second thought, refactor the call to the Authentication Server API to get the user list in blocks of data (say 400 at a time) and decreasing the call/response time between the method getUsers and the API call. This would still occur in the JavaUtilClass, so I am unsure this would make a difference. The session beans would still be idle and subject to timeout, correct?
Would setting initialBeansInFreePool to 1 in SessionBean1 make any difference?
Or should I be looking at replicating the re-factored method from the JavaUtilClass in SessionBean1 where the user list is being used so that the API calls come back to it and keep it 'active'?
Thanks for any advice you could give me on this.

Hi
regarding timeouts, there are two ways:
1.- Changing the settings in the JTA WebLogic domain , called "Timeout Seconds". This will affect globally to all EJB deployed in the domain.
or
2.- Specified directly in the bean with a weblogic annotation, like this:
@TransactionTimeoutSeconds(value = 300)I hope this will help you.
Regards.

Stateless session Bean - xml and ejb-jar.xml file ???

Dear Experts,
Stateless-session bean
For Creating an ear file
we need ejb-jar.xml and weblogic-ejb-jar.xml files
Is these files are already available
or we have to type these files ??
Advance Thanks
Rengaraj.R

My best advice: surrender to use an IDE.
You wonder sometimes at how much productivity (read as 'time') could be wasted by doing something that could be done automatically. For a learning experience or a once only exercise is fine but as a routine thing, not worth it.

It's a WebService and a Stateless Session bean

Ok,
I have a Stateless Session Bean that have annotated as a @WebService.
@Stateless
@WebService
public class TravelAgentWSBean {
I only call it as a WebService, never as a StatelessSessionBean. Do I get the exact same transactional behaviour as if it was a Stateless Session Bean?
Thanks.

You could try it like this
<c:catch var="formatError">
<fmt:formatNumber value="${row.payment}" type="currency" currencySymbol="" var="pay"/>
</c:catch>
<c:if test="${not empty formatError}">
Error formatting value <c:out value="${row.payment}"/>
</c:if>

Calling EJB 3.0 Stateless Session Bean

Dear all,
I created a stateless session bean with a hello world method on it. Now i want to call the method from a BeanDecorator class, through a getter metod. When i use the jndi lookup in my getter, i can call the helloWorld method without a problem. However, when i dont use the jndi lookup, and only use the @EJB annotation, i always get a nullpointer.
This is working:
InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();
test = (TestLocal)ic.lookup("test.be/ear~bd/LOCAL/TestBean/"+TestLocal.class.getName());
test.helloWorld()
This gives nullpointer:
@EJB
private TestLocal test;
test.helloWorld();
What is the correct way to consume session beans without having to explicitly code the jndi lookup?
Kind regards.

Hi,
any annotation like this can be used only in "managed classes" like Session Beans, Servlets etc. Managed classes are those classes managed by the J2EE server. Managed here means, lifetime controlled by server.
You can find this in J2EE specification.

Null Pointer Exception in Stateless Session Beans(EJB 3.0)

I am executing a simple HelloUser example i code session bean interface and implementing session bean class in the EJB project.
package ejb3inaction.ejb;
import javax.ejb.Remote;
@Remote
public interface HelloUser {
public void sayHello(String name);
package ejb3inaction.ejb;
import javax.ejb.Stateless;
@Stateless
public class HelloUserBean implements HelloUser {
public void sayHello(String name) {
System.out.println("Hello " + name + " welcome to EJB 3 In Action!");
And in the client project i code this class and add JAR file of the EJB project.
package ejb3inaction.example;
import javax.ejb.EJB;
import ejb3inaction.ejb.*;
public class HelloUserClient {
@EJB
private static HelloUser helloUser;
     public static void main(String[] args) {
helloUser.sayHello("Curious George");
System.out.println("Invoked EJB successfully .. see server console for output");
I am using netbeans 6.0(10 M) and Sun Application server 9.
it gives NullPointer Exception at the following line...
helloUser.sayHello("Curious George");
how i can resolve this error.
regards,
deemy

Well, helloUser is just a null reference, you haven't created an instance of HelloUser to use, hence the NPE

System.out.println("Msg from Bean"+c.getCity());
please help me out of this issue....

If you deploy your application in a .ear, you also can use this:
You have to set a name to your EJBBean -> @Stateless(name = "XXX")
The client for remote interface -> cxt.lookup(Name_of_your_own_ear_without_extension + "/XXX/Remote");
The client for local interface -> cxt.lookup(Name_of_your_own_ear_without_extension + "/XXX/Local");the problem with this approach is that if you version your ears, the version numbers show up in the jndi names, and your client code will be hard coded to specific server versions.

How to integrate hibernate with Stateless Session bean in weblogic10.0

Hi,
I need to invoke hibernate(3.x) DAO from EJB Stateless Session bean(EJB2.x). I am using mysql database. Can somebody please post the configuration.
Thanks in advance,
Rushi.

Hi Deepak,
Thanks for your reply.
Actually, our stand alone java application already using spring-hibernate feature. Now we are planning divide our application into modules and deploy each module as ejb beans. As it is already integrated with spring-hibernate we are not using entity beans as of now. My understanding is container uses some default transcation management .so, my question is what are all the configurations needs to be done to let weblogic 10.0 server uses org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager. I mean, is there are any .xml file in weblogic to configure all these? please reply deepak I am struck here..

Rushi.

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.

Stateless Session Bean + EJB Question + Jboss

Hello,
If I have a stateless session bean on a linux machine and it works locally what do i need to do to access a method in the session bean from a remote windows machine.
I would like to be able to execute my client jar file on a windows machine and have it access the jboss server on the linux machine. what do i need to do?
i have the session bean working locally on both windows and linux machine. do i need to to have a JSP/Servlet to access the session bean? can the session bean not be accessed directly? what should my classpath look like? do I need to include extra jar files in my client jar file.?
Thanks,
Joyce

Thanks guys for the help but I am still a little lost.
My Client windows machine has the client jar file and all the other jar files. This is my client class
package helloworld.client;
import javax.naming.Context;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
import java.util.Hashtable;
import java.util.Properties;
import helloworld.interfaces.HelloWorldHome;
import helloworld.interfaces.HelloWorld;
public class HelloClient
     public static void main(String[] args)
          Hashtable prop = new Hashtable();
          prop.put ("java.naming.factory.url.pkgs","org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
          prop.put ("java.naming.provider.url","jnp://172.16.220.160:1099");
          prop.put ("java.naming.factory.initial","org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
          try
               Context ctx = new InitialContext(prop);
               Object obj = ctx.lookup("ejb/helloworld/HelloWorld");
               System.out.println(obj);
               HelloWorldHome home = (HelloWorldHome)javax.rmi.PortableRemoteObject.narrow(obj, HelloWorldHome.class);
               HelloWorld helloWorld = home.create();
               String str = helloWorld.sayHelloEJB("JOYCE is COOL");
               System.out.println(str);
               helloWorld.remove();
          catch(Exception e)
               e.printStackTrace();
I get a NullPointer ie the home object is null. The IP address is the IP of the Linux machine that has Jboss running on.
Questions are:
1. Do I need to have Tomcat running on my client machine if I am to connect via HTTP? Does this alter my client code.?
2. My JNDI lookup is what is causing the problem. Does my jboss.xml and my ejb-jar.jar look okay to you.

Do I need RMI ? Do I need to concern myself with CORBA? All Im looking for is a step by step to understanding what I need to configure? Is their some way I can debug?
Thanks alot,
