This section describes preparation for creating an EJB client application and the support function for generating an EJB client application.
Preparation for Creating a Session or Entity Bean Client Application
Developing an application that invokes a session bean or an entity bean requires the following classes included in the Enterprise Beans to be invoked:
Home interface class and remote interface class or localhome interface class and local interface class.
User-defined class to be passed as a parameter or return value in Enterprise Bean invocation (valid if this class is being used)
To create an application that invokes the Enterprise Bean, in addition to the requirements above, set the client distribution data to the classpath. Refer to "Client distribution data" for information on client distribution data.
Point
If performing an EJB application test, the procedure below must be used to set Interstage Application Server V11.1 IJServer (J2EE) for the server runtime:
Select the project. From the context menu, click [Properties] > [Java Build Path] > [Libraries]Tab > [Add Library...]. At [Server Runtime], specify [Interstage Application Server V11.1 IJServer (J2EE)].
If J2EE1.3 is selected as the client type, a J2EE1.3 format deployment descriptor is generated in the EJB test client project, but this project cannot be added to an enterprise application project.
