Hello, zen fans of JBoss,
I am pretty much new to JBoss. I have read a few articles, searched about the different
alternatives and decided to give JBoss a real try. But, what I am trying to do is rather
unusual, and it's a huge challenge to find documentation on that specific topic.
I have an 'old' application, that I have been writing for 2 years now. It's a
simple RMI client-server application, backed by a database on the server-side. It's a
standalone RMI server, and the client is a simple Swing client, connecting to the server
through a single exported object.
I want to port that application into a JBoss server, for flexibility and future
extendability. As a matter of fact, I want to integrate email sending functionnalities and
soon add web capabilities to access the data contained in the system. JBoss seemed the way
to go.
So... how can I do that, with minimum hassle? I have my JBoss server setup on my dev
machine, but now how do I tell JBoss "Hey, dude, boot that thing up!"... It used
to be a simple main() method starting the whole server program, opening up the RMI
registry on a specified port and exporting the server object on it.
I'd guess i need to wrap my program in a EAR package, with some descriptor to tell the
server there is an exportable (or do I need to implement activatable?) object in there and
it needs to be exported on an RMI registry?.. Or, would I need to wrap my application
inside an EJB?
Well, if you have ideas, I'd love to hear them. Thanks in advance.
