Explanation/Reference:
name is barRef
Example:
ejb-local-ref
share [gp] share [fb] share [tw] contribute
Via annotation
Usable by EJB, Interceptor, Servlet, Filter, or Listener
package org.superbiz.refs;
import javax.ejb.EJB;
import javax.ejb.Stateless;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
@ Stateless
@ EJB(name = "myFooEjb", beanInterface = FooLocal.class)
public class MyEjbLocalRefBean implements MyBeanInterface {
@ EJB
private BarLocal myBarEjb;
public void someBusinessMethod() throws Exception {
if (myBarEjb == null) throw new NullPointerException("myBarEjb not
injected");
/ / Both can be looked up from JNDI as well
InitialContext context = new InitialContext();
FooLocal fooLocal = (FooLocal) context.lookup("java:comp/env/
myFooEjb");
BarLocal barLocal = (BarLocal) context.lookup("java:comp/env/
org.superbiz.refs.MyEjbLocalRefBean/myBarEjb");
}
}
Via xml
The above @EJB annotation usage is 100% equivalent to the following xml.
< ejb-local-ref>
< ejb-ref-name>myFooEjb</ejb-ref-name>
<local>org.superbiz.refs.FooLocal</local>
</ejb-local-ref>
< ejb-local-ref>
< ejb-ref-name>org.superbiz.refs.MyEjbLocalRefBean/myBarEjb</ejb-ref-name>
< local>org.superbiz.refs.BarLocal</local>
< injection-target>
<injection-target-class>org.superbiz.refs.MyEjbLocalRefBean</injection- target-class>
< injection-target-name>myBarEjb</injection-target-name>
< /injection-target>
</ejb-local-ref>
