[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Using stateless beans generated by seam in standalone Java a

[JbossDing]

I am pretty new to seam framework but have 3 years experience with previous versions of EJB. Our project is using seam to generate codes for a web application to access backend database. It works pretty good. However, I have the need to access the same database in standalone Java applications outside of Jboss virtual machine. When I looked at the seam-generated code, I am lost and need help. 

First how to look up session bean in my Java application? I can not find the ejb-jar.xml so I do not know what is the jndi name used for the generated beans. Second, I do not know how to call those generated beans. For example, I have a table called Host in a test database, the table is simple with id, hostname, and connect_time. Use seam setup, seam new-project, seam generate-entities, and seam explode, seam framework did almost everything for me. It generates two java files in the action folder. Here is the code: in HostList.java

@Name("hostList")
  | public class HostList extends EntityQuery {
  | 
  | 	private static final String[] RESTRICTIONS = {"lower(host.hostname) like concat(lower(#{hostList.host.hostname}),'%')",};
  | 
  | 	private Host host = new Host();
  | 
  | 	@Override
  | 	public String getEjbql() {
  | 		return "select host from Host host";
  | 	}
  | 
  | 	@Override
  | 	public Integer getMaxResults() {
  | 		return 25;
  | 	}
  | 
  | 	public Host getHost() {
  | 		return host;
  | 	}
  | 
  | 	@Override
  | 	public List<String> getRestrictions() {
  | 		return Arrays.asList(RESTRICTIONS);
  | 	}
  | 
  | }

in HostHome.java

@Name("hostHome")
  | public class HostHome extends EntityHome<Host> {
  | 
  | 	public void setHostId(Integer id) {
  | 		setId(id);
  | 	}
  | 
  | 	public Integer getHostId() {
  | 		return (Integer) getId();
  | 	}
  | 
  | 	@Override
  | 	protected Host createInstance() {
  | 		Host host = new Host();
  | 		return host;
  | 	}
  | 
  | 	public void wire() {
  | 	}
  | 
  | 	public boolean isWired() {
  | 		return true;
  | 	}
  | 
  | 	public Host getDefinedInstance() {
  | 		return isIdDefined() ? getInstance() : null;
  | 	}
  | 
  | }

By looking at the code, I am lost at how I should call the bean to make select, update, delete, and insert operations.

Would anyone give me some help or point me to some documents or tutorials? Thanks a lot.
