Hi,
I'm trying to workout an EJB example with JBoss, but I'm having some trouble understanding some things, and making other things to work.
My Environment:
- Windows XP;
- JBoss 5.1.0.GA;
- Eclipse.
The project is composed of an EAR with an EJB 3.0 and WAR module. Then I'll try to connect remotely in a client application to invoke the EJB.
So for a start, my EJB definition is:
package com.test;
import javax.ejb.Stateless;
/**
* Session Bean implementation class MyBean
*/
@Stateless(name = "my-name", mappedName = "my-map")
public class MyBean implements MyRemote, MyLocal {
/**
* Default constructor.
*/
public MyBean() {
}
public String getMyCommon() {
return "My-Common";
}
public String getMyRemote() {
return "My-Remote";
}
public String getMyLocal() {
return "My-Local";
}
}
package com.test;
import javax.ejb.Local;
@Local
public interface MyLocal {
public String getMyCommon();
public String getMyLocal();
}
package com.test;
import javax.ejb.Remote;
@Remote
public interface MyRemote {
public String getMyCommon();
public String getMyRemote();
}
My ejb-jar.xml in EJB module META-INF, has no definitions:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ASCII"?>
<ejb-jar xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:ejb="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/ejb-jar_3_0.xsd" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/ejb-jar_3_0.xsd" version="3.0">
<display-name>my-ejb</display-name>
</ejb-jar>
My web.xml in WAR module has no reference to EJB:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd" id="WebApp_ID" version="2.5">
<display-name>my-web</display-name>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>index.html</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
<servlet>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>javax.faces.webapp.FacesServlet</servlet-class>
<load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/faces/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>Faces Servlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>*.jsf</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
</web-app>
My application.xml describes the modules:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<application xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/application_5.xsd" version="5">
<display-name>my-ear</display-name>
<module>
<web>
<web-uri>my-web-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.war</web-uri>
<context-root>/my-web</context-root>
</web>
</module>
<module>
<ejb>my-ejb-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar</ejb>
</module>
</application>
The WAR has a small test page, that injects the @EJB local interface, and successfully gets data, so I assume no other config should be necessary (for now, at least).
For deployment, I just copied the EAR to deploy directory. No errors, and checking JMX Console I can find the following info:
jboss.deployment
# id="jboss.j2ee:ear=my-ear-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.ear,jar=my-ejb-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar,name=my-name,service=EJB3",type=Component
# id="jboss.j2ee:ear=my-ear-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.ear,jar=my-ejb-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar,name=my-name,service=EJB3_endpoint",type=Component
I then created a small standalone project, with following code:
Hashtable environment = new Hashtable();
environment.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.jnp.interfaces.NamingContextFactory");
environment.put(Context.URL_PKG_PREFIXES, "org.jboss.naming:org.jnp.interfaces");
environment.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "jnp://127.0.0.1:1099"); // remote machine IP
InitialContext context = null;
try {
context = new InitialContext(environment);
Object obj = context.lookup("my-name");
System.out.println("-->> lookup object successfully");
} catch(Throwable ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if( context!=null ) {
context.close();
}
}
When executing, I get the exception:
javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: my-name not bound

Changing the lookup to:
Object obj = context.lookup("my-map");
Works ok. Lookup goes successfull.
Replacing with:
MyRemote myRemote = (MyRemote) context.lookup("my-map");
Will return:
java.lang.ClassCastException: javax.naming.Reference cannot be cast to com.test.MyRemote
My client application has dependency to the EJB client jar, which only has MyRemote and MyLocal classes, and a dependency to jbossall-client-3.2.3.jar.
If I narrow:
MyRemote myRemote = (MyRemote) PortableRemoteObject.narrow(
context.lookup("my-map"),
MyRemote.class
);
I'll get:
java.lang.ClassCastException

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
