Weblogic EJB Deployment Descriptor

Hi,
Can someone help me in learning how to write weblogic specific deployment descriptors for EJBs ??? Where can I find good tutorial or help. I am new to EJB.
Thank you in advance

Why not search http://bea.com and see what pops up. I searched their site for "EJB deployment descriptors" and got quite a few hits.

EJB deployment descriptors in clustered environment

          I was wondering how EJB deployment descriptor settings work in a clustered environment. Are the deployment descriptors per WebLogic instance they are deployed in or the entire clustered environment? For example, if my descriptor for a stateless session ejb has max-beans-in-free-pool set to 5 and I deploy this stateless ejb in 4 WebLogic instances of one cluster, does this mean that there will be a max of 5 instance of this bean in the free pool for the entire cluster or will there be a max of 20 (5 per WebLogic instance and 4 WebLogic instances in the cluster) instances of this bean for the entire cluster?
          Thanks,
          Bryan


Those settings are per server instance.

EJB deployment descriptor vs. annotations

Hi,
I need some example of EJB deployment descriptor and matching Java code with annotations for my school project. In other words I need the same information in descriptor and in annotations. If anyone would provide me with some simple sample, I would be very thankful.
Milan

This shows an ejb-jar.xml file. At the bottom it breaks down what each section does and what annotation it refers to, should be straight forward to create some code snippets from it...

Weblogic vendor specific EJB deployment descriptor

Hi All,
I have been trying to get weblogic-ejb.xml working to provide the names where I want my EJB3 beans accessable in JNDI, but this has not been working for me.
I have been looking through the web - there are not too many mentions of the deployment descriptor. If there any tutorials or official documents from BEA on this, links would be highliy appreciated.
I am using WL10_01 if it helps.
Thanks,
Kirill.

Did you try <business-interface-jndi-name-map> tag in weblogic-ejb-jar.xml?
With the following example setup, you should be able to look up the Session bean that implements service.JPAService interface in JNDI tree with "JPAService".
<weblogic-enterprise-bean>
    <ejb-name>JPAServiceBean</ejb-name>
     <stateless-session-descriptor>
      <business-interface-jndi-name-map>
           <business-remote>service.JPAService</business-remote>
        <jndi-name>JPAService</jndi-name>
      </business-interface-jndi-name-map>
    </stateless-session-descriptor>
    <enable-call-by-reference>true</enable-call-by-reference>
</weblogic-enterprise-bean>

About EJB deployment descriptor

Hello. I am developing EJB3 with glassfish and weblogic 10. I know I can use annotations to simplify
deployment without using ejb-jar.xml , sun-ejb-jar.xml, weblogic-ejb-jar.xml. However, I do want to know
how to write these files correctly because they have higher priority when used.
Somebody may give me a template about writing these files? (ejb 3 specification, for ejb2, I can
use xdoclet to generate them).Thanks a lot.

Hi Martin,
you're are right, XDoclet support for OC4J is lacking the most important stuff. In my case I needed explicit mapping of CMR-fields. Of course, manually editing orion-ejb-jar.xml either by using a text editor or JDeveloper is no option at all.
So I've added support for explicit CMR-mapping to the OC4J XDoclet templates. It works but wasn't fun to do as Oracle's documentation of CMR-mapping is highly inconsistent (e.g. text, figures, and example code are not in sync).
As I've done this as part of a services contract, I cannot easily publish the results. I'll ask my client and let you know.
Anyway, orion-ejb-jar.xml will be obsolete by default in OC4J 10.x as Oracle switches to Toplink as the default persistence manager. So again, XDoclet support is needed for generating the Toplink-specific deployment descriptor.
I'd really appreciate Oracle to provide OC4J-specific XDoclet enhancements. This would help OC4J in gaining wider acceptance.

EJB Deployment Descriptors not deploying to WLS

Hi,
We're using Eclipse 3.4.1 with the OEPE to target WLS 10.3 with Java 6/JEE 1.4 on a Windows XP Professional development machine.
We have an EJB 2.1 project as part of a larger EAR. The beans (all stateless session beans) and associated interfaces and deployment descriptors within are maintained manually for internal reasons; we do not rely on EJBGen or XDoclet or anything like that to manage these. We are NOT using any annotations in these EJBs, as is the default when you create a bean. Instead we rely on weblogic-ejb-jar.xml and ejb-jar.xml.
We're having an issue where deploying to the local Weblogic server instance fails with the following error displaying in the Eclipse console:
<Dec 19, 2008 9:21:13 AM CST> <Warning> <Deployer> <BEA-149004> <Failures were detected while initiating deploy task for application 'xxxxxxx'.>

We DO have multiple beans defined, but it seems that WLS just isn't aware of them due to the lack of a deployment descriptor. It appears that Eclipse/OEPE is not copying the ejb-jar.xml and weblogic-ejb-jar.xml files to the build directory when the project is build:
xxxxxEJB
|-- ejbModule
|.....|-- META-INF
|.....|.....|-- ejb-jar.xml
|.....|.....|-- MANIFEST.MF
|.....|.....|-- weblogic-ejb-jar.xml
|.....|-- com (etc., .java files)
|-- build
......|-- classes
............|-- META-INF
............|......|-- MANIFEST.MF
............|-- com (etc, .class files)
Other notes:
- Cleaning the project does not help.
- Starting a new workspace does not help.
- It works under Eclipse 3.3.2 with the Europa version of OEPE.
- Explicitly exporting an EJB Jar file DOES include the two deployment descriptors (just not deploying to the embedded test server we've defined in our Servers view)
Any ideas? This seems like either a bug in the OEPE, or maybe WTP.

Yes, I have a simple EJB2.1 project with hand-crafted EJB remote/home interfaces/classes and deployment descriptors. Also tried Clean/Rebuild and manually delete
files under /build/classes.

Disappearing weblogic.xml deployment descriptor elements

Using WebLogic 8.1 SP1
We have an application that we deploy with a weblogic.xml file. This file has
half-a-dozen deployment descriptor elements, and for some reason I'm unaware of,
several of the parameters specified by these elements are set to their default
values, and these elements don't show up in the weblogic.xml deployment decriptor
when displayed from within the WebLogic Server console. When deploying an exploded
EAR, I can change the value to something non-default , look at the deployment
descriptor and the element appears; change it back and the element is gone.
Is this expected behavior? Is there any configuration setting to display all
the elements no matter the value?
Thanks.

Does pass-by-value in an EJB deployment descriptor work in iAS 6.0 sp4?

I deployed an EJB into iAS 6.0 SP4 with pass-by-value session element set to true but the EJB is still passing by reference. Is this a known problem in SP4? I checked the session descriptor in kregedit for that EJB and I couldn't find any entry that relates to the pass-by-value element.
Please help.

Hi Yudong,
Thanks for the info. Do you know if this is only specific to SP4? The problem seems to be present in SP3 as well.
Thanks

EJB deployment descriptor

Hi
I have jusr started with the EJB. I am using JBoss Server.
I have a session bean and a MessageDrivenBean in the same package. Do I mention both of them in the same ejb-jar.xml file place inside the META-INF directory as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE ejb-jar PUBLIC '-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Enterprise JavaBeans 2.0//EN' 'http://java.sun.com/dtd/ejb-jar_2_0.dtd'>
<ejb-jar>
<display-name>AccountManager6JAR</display-name>
<enterprise-beans>
<session>
</session>
<message-driven>
</message-driven>
</enterprise-beans>
</ejb-jar>
I addition to the above I also have the jboss.xml file in META-INF directory as follows:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<jboss>
<enterprise-beans>
<message-driven>
<res-ref-name>.....</res-ref-name>
<configuration-name>.....</configuration-name>
<jndi-name>.....</jndi-name>
</message-driven>
</enterprise-beans>
</jboss>
do I need to add an entry of the my message driven bean in the ejb-jar.xml file or having the jboss.xml file is sufficient??
Many thanks for the help!!

Well, the xml file for JBoss is specific to JBoss. Therefore you should refer to JBoss documentation for that. However, what I suggest is that you make a EAR file out of your jars and then deploy it. That should solve the problem, as EAR file is a standard.

Deployment descriptor error for an EJB 3.0 entity bean module

The application is composed as follows:

Custom deployment descriptor

Hi there
We are in the process of deploying our standard J2EE EAR file to
WebLogic 9.2 MP2. The EAR file does not contain weblogic custom
deployment descriptors (e.g.: weblogic.xml) but only standard DDs (e.g.:
web.xml)
I have some doubts about resources mapping and I'd like to get some help
from experienced WL users.
Basically our EAR file is composed of an EJB module and a WEB module.
Each module declares some references such as:
WEB.XML snippet
<resource-ref>
<description>DataSource for partition 'default'</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/Datasource</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
<res-sharing-scope>Shareable</res-sharing-scope>
</resource-ref>
Now the questions:
1) Is there a way to map the resources during the deployment, using the
console? This is the way followed by WebSphere and Oracle AS, for
example. If this is not possible, should I provide a Deployment Plan for
that EAR file? I tried to provide the xml Deployment Plan generated by
weblogic.PlanGenerator utility together with the EAR file while
deploying the app, but no luck. It seems the Deployment Plan should be
provided in a jar file. Is that correct?
2) If the previous options are not possible, how can I create the custom
deployment descriptor? Is there an "Assembly Tool" that imports the
standard EAR and then export the custom EAR file with the custom
deployment descriptors correctly generated?
Thank you a lot in advance.

A deployment plan is external to the ear/jar file.
It is probably easiest to deploy the application with the console, and then
use the console to change the values you want. It will automatically
generate a deployment plan for you.

ExportException+StubNotFoundException in Clustered EJB Deployment

          Hi All,
          I'm a Newbie to WebLogic and would appreciate help in solving my problem.
          I am running WLS 5.1sp6 on NT4 and am trying to implement a two server cluster on one machine.
          The cluster runs fine, but as soon as I try to deploy our EJBs in the cluster level properties file I get the exceptions listed in the attached log.
          In a standalone environment the EJBs function flawlessly but not in a cluster.
          Notice that the EJB is successfully deployed to the server but the exception crops up a little further down the track.
          The only unusual thing about the environment I can think of is the WebLogic CLASSPATH is disabled.
          The EJB deployment descriptor contains:
          <clustering-descriptor>
          <home-is-clusterable>True</home-is-clusterable>
          <stateless-bean-is-clusterable>True</stateless-bean-is-clusterable>
          </clustering-descriptor>
          Any ideas?

</target>This should build my ejbs with either the wls61 ejbc or the wls51 one. Anyway ant seems to have problems finding the local dtds in the classpath, although this is specified in the documentation. When I set both location attributes to point to files it works perfect. The problem is that these are in weblogic.jar for the wls61 release. This has two solutions, but either are bad in my opinion:
1. extract the needed dtds to a temp dir with a jar task and then delete em...
2. put the proper wls.jar in the classpath so ejbc could automatically resolve the dtds
Can anyone help or may be send his ant build file, where a <dtd> nested element is used for <ejbjar> for wls61?
Thank you in advance
Anton

Anton,
Your second solution is the correct one. If you look at dtd element description under ejbjar task in the Ant manual, you'll see that vendors jars are required in Ant's classpath in order for ejbjar task to resolve DTD dependencies, in which case you don't need to specify dtd elements. I don't particularly like it either. If you find a better way to solve this problem, let me know.
