Introduction
EJB Tasks

- -

Introduction

Ant provides a number of optional tasks for developing 1.x and 2.x -Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs). -In general these tasks are specific to the particular vendor's EJB Server.

- -

The tasks support:
- -

Borland - Application Server 4.5
iPlanet - Application Server 6.0
- JBoss 2.1 and above EJB servers
Weblogic - 4.5.1 through to 7.0 EJB servers
JOnAS - 2.4.x and 2.5 Open Source EJB server
IBM WebSphere 4.0

- Vendors such as BEA and IBM now provide custom Ant tasks to work with their - particular products. More importantly, EJB3.0 renders this whole process obsolete. - Accordingly, development of these tasks is effectively frozen. Bug reports - and especially patches are welcome, but there is no pressing need to add - support for new application servers. Nobody should be writing new EJB2.x applications - and definitely not new EJB2.x servers. -

ddcreator

Description:

ddcreator will compile a set of Weblogic text-based deployment descriptors into a serialized -EJB deployment descriptor. The selection of which of the text-based descriptors are to be compiled -is based on the standard Ant include and exclude selection mechanisms. -

- -

Parameters:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Attribute	Description	Required
descriptors	This is the base directory from which descriptors are selected.	Yes
dest	The directory where the serialized deployment descriptors will be written	Yes
classpath	This is the classpath to use to run the underlying weblogic ddcreator tool. - This must include the `weblogic.ejb.utils.DDCreator` class	No

Examples

-<ddcreator descriptors="${dd.dir}"
-           dest="${gen.classes}"
-           classpath="${descriptorbuild.classpath}">
-  <include name="*.txt"/>
-</ddcreator>
-

- -

ejbc

Description:

The ejbc task will run Weblogic's ejbc tool. This tool will take a serialized deployment descriptor, -examine the various EJB interfaces and bean classes and then generate the required support classes -necessary to deploy the bean in a Weblogic EJB container. This will include the RMI stubs and skeletons -as well as the classes which implement the bean's home and remote interfaces.

-The ant task which runs this tool is able to compile several beans in a single operation. The beans to be -compiled are selected by including their serialized deployment descriptors. The standard ant -include and exclude constructs can be used to select the deployment descriptors -to be included.

-Each descriptor is examined to determine whether the generated classes are out of date and need to be -regenerated. The deployment descriptor is de-serialized to discover the home, remote and -implementation classes. The corresponding source files are determined and checked to see their -modification times. These times and the modification time of the serialized descriptor itself are -compared with the modification time of the generated classes. If the generated classes are not present -or are out of date, the ejbc tool is run to generate new versions.

Parameters:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Attribute	Description	Required
descriptors	This is the base directory from which the serialized deployment descriptors are selected.	Yes
dest	The base directory where the generated classes, RIM stubs and RMI skeletons are written	Yes
manifest	The name of a manifest file to be written. This manifest will contain an entry for each EJB processed	Yes
src	The base directory of the source tree containing the source files of the home interface, - remote interface and bean implementation classes.	Yes
classpath	This classpath must include both the `weblogic.ejbc` class and the - class files of the bean, home interface, remote interface, etc of the bean being - processed.	No
keepgenerated	Controls whether ejbc will keep the - intermediate Java files used to build the class files. This can be - useful when debugging.	No, defaults to false.

-iplanet-ejbc

- -

-Description:

-Task to compile EJB stubs and skeletons for the iPlanet Application Server -6.0. Given a standard EJB 1.1 XML descriptor as well as an iAS-specific -EJB descriptor, this task will generate the stubs and skeletons required -to deploy the EJB to iAS. Since the XML descriptors can include multiple -EJBs, this is a convenient way of specifying many EJBs in a single Ant -task. -

For each EJB specified, the task will locate the three classes that -comprise the EJB in the destination directory. If these class files -cannot be located in the destination directory, the task will fail. The -task will also attempt to locate the EJB stubs and skeletons in this directory. -If found, the timestamps on the stubs and skeletons will be checked to -ensure they are up to date. Only if these files cannot be found or if they -are out of date will the iAS ejbc utility be called to generate new stubs -and skeletons.

-Parameters:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Attribute	Description	Required
ejbdescriptor	Standard EJB 1.1 XML descriptor (typically titled "ejb-jar.xml").	Yes
iasdescriptor	iAS-specific EJB XML descriptor (typically titled "ias-ejb-jar.xml").	Yes
dest	The is the base directory where the RMI stubs and skeletons -are written. In addition, the class files for each bean (home interface, -remote interface, and EJB implementation) must be found in this directory.	Yes
classpath	The classpath used when generating EJB stubs and skeletons. -If omitted, the classpath specified when Ant was started will be used. -Nested "classpath" elements may also be used.	No
keepgenerated	Indicates whether or not the Java source files which are -generated by ejbc will be saved or automatically deleted. If "yes", the -source files will be retained. If omitted, it defaults to "no".	No
debug	Indicates whether or not the ejbc utility should log additional debugging -statements to the standard output. If "yes", the additional debugging statements -will be generated. If omitted, it defaults to "no".	-No -
iashome	May be used to specify the "home" directory for this iAS installation. -This is used to find the ejbc utility if it isn't included in the user's -system path. If specified, it should refer to the "[install-location]/iplanet/ias6/ias" -directory. If omitted, the ejbc utility must be on the user's system path.	No

wlrun

Description:

- -

The wlrun task is used to start a weblogic server. The task runs -a weblogic instance in a separate Java Virtual Machine. A number of parameters -are used to control the operation of the weblogic instance. Note that the task, -and hence ant, will not complete until the weblogic instance is stopped.

- -

Parameters:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

- -

Nested Elements

- -

The wlrun task supports nested <classpath> and <wlclasspath> -elements to set the respective classpaths.

- -

Examples

- -

This example shows the use of wlrun to run a server under Weblogic 5.1

- -

-    <wlrun taskname="myserver"
-           classpath="${weblogic.boot.classpath}"
-           wlclasspath="${weblogic.classes}:${code.jars}"
-           name="myserver"
-           home="${weblogic.home}"
-           properties="myserver/myserver.properties"/>
-

- -

This example shows wlrun being used to run the petstore server under -Weblogic 6.0

- -

-    <wlrun taskname="petstore"
-           classpath="${weblogic.classes}"
-           name="petstoreServer"
-           domain="petstore"
-           home="${weblogic.home}"
-           password="petstorePassword"
-           beahome="${bea.home}"/>
-

- -

wlstop

Description:

- -

The wlstop task is used to stop a weblogic instance which is -currently running. To shut down an instance you must supply both a username and -a password. These will be stored in the clear in the build script used to stop -the instance. For security reasons, this task is therefore only appropriate in a -development environment.

- -

This task works for most version of Weblogic, including 6.0. You need to -specify the BEA Home to have this task work correctly under 6.0

- -

Parameters:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

BEAHome	This attribute selects Weblogic 6.0 shutdown.	No
classpath	The classpath to be used with the Java Virtual Machine that runs the Weblogic - Shutdown command.	Yes
user	The username of the account which will be used to shutdown the server	Yes
password	The password for the account specified in the user parameter.	Yes
url	The URL which describes the port to which the server is listening for T3 connections. - For example, t3://localhost:7001	Yes
delay	The delay in seconds after which the server will stop. This defaults to an - immediate shutdown.	No

- -

Nested Element

- -

The classpath of the wlstop task can be set by a <classpath> nested element.

- -

Examples

- -

This example show the shutdown for a Weblogic 6.0 server

- -

-    <wlstop classpath="${weblogic.classes}"
-            user="system"
-            url="t3://localhost:7001"
-            password="foobar"
-            beahome="${bea.home}"/>
-

- -

ejbjar

Description:

- -

This task is designed to support building of EJB jar files (EJB 1.1 & 2.0). -Support is currently provided for 'vanilla' EJB jar files - i.e. those containing only -the user generated class files and the standard deployment descriptor. Nested -elements provide support for vendor specific deployment tools. These currently -include:

Borland Application Server 4.5
iPlanet Application Server 6.0
JBoss 2.1 and above
Weblogic 5.1/6.0 session/entity beans using the weblogic.ejbc tool
IBM WebSphere 4.0
TOPLink for WebLogic 2.5.1-enabled entity beans
JOnAS 2.4.x and 2.5 Open Source EJB server

- - -

The task works as a directory scanning task, and performs an action for each -deployment descriptor found. As such the includes and excludes should be set -to ensure that all desired EJB descriptors are found, but no application -server descriptors are found. For each descriptor found, ejbjar will parse the -deployment descriptor to determine the necessary class files which implement the -bean. These files are assembled along with the deployment descriptors into a -well formed EJB jar file. Any support files which need to be included in the -generated jar can be added with the <support> nested element. For each -class included in the jar, ejbjar will scan for any super classes or super -interfaces. These will be added to the generated jar.

- -

If no nested vendor-specific deployment elements are present, the task will -simply generate a generic EJB jar. Such jars are typically used as the input to -vendor-specific deployment tools. For each nested deployment element, a vendor -specific deployment tool is run to generate a jar file ready for deployment in -that vendor's EJB container.

- -

The jar files are only built if they are out of date. Each deployment tool -element will examine its target jar file and determine if it is out of date with -respect to the class files and deployment descriptors that make up the bean. If -any of these files are newer than the jar file the jar will be rebuilt otherwise -a message is logged that the jar file is up to date.

- -

The task uses the - BCEL framework -to extract all dependent classes. This -means that, in addition to the classes that are mentioned in the -deployment descriptor, any classes that these depend on are also -automatically included in the jar file.

- - -

Naming Convention

- -Ejbjar handles the processing of multiple beans, and it uses a set of naming -conventions to determine the name of the generated EJB jars. The naming convention -that is used is controlled by the "naming" attribute. It supports the -following values -

descriptor

This is the default naming scheme. The name of the generated bean is derived from the -name of the deployment descriptor. For an Account bean, for example, the deployment -descriptor would be named Account-ejb-jar.xml. Vendor specific descriptors are -located using the same naming convention. The weblogic bean, for example, would be named -Account-weblogic-ejb-jar.xml. Under this arrangement, the deployment descriptors -can be separated from the code implementing the beans, which can be useful when the same bean code -is deployed in separate beans. -

This scheme is useful when you are using one bean per EJB jar and where you may be -deploying the same bean classes in different beans, with different deployment characteristics. - -

ejb-name

This naming scheme uses the <ejb-name> element from the deployment descriptor to -determine the bean name. In this situation, the descriptors normally use the generic -descriptor names, such as ejb-jar.xml along with any associated vendor specific descriptor -names. For example, If the value of the <ejb-name> were to be given in the deployment descriptor -as follows: -

-<ejb-jar>
-    <enterprise-beans>
-        <entity>
-            <ejb-name>Sample</ejb-name>
-            <home>org.apache.ant.ejbsample.SampleHome</home>
-

Sample.jar

This scheme is useful where you want to use the standard deployment descriptor names, which may be more -compatible with other EJB tools. This scheme must have one bean per jar. -

directory

-In this mode, the name of the generated bean jar is derived from the directory -containing the deployment descriptors. Again the deployment descriptors typically use -the standard filenames. For example, if the path to the deployment descriptor is -/home/user/dev/appserver/dd/sample, then the generated -bean will be named sample.jar -

-This scheme is also useful when you want to use standard style descriptor names. It is often -most useful when the descriptors are located in the same directory as the bean source code, -although that is not mandatory. This scheme can handle multiple beans per jar. -

basejarname

-The final scheme supported by the <ejbjar> task is used when you want to specify the generated -bean jar name directly. In this case the name of the generated jar is specified by the -"basejarname" attribute. Since all generated beans will have the same name, this task should -be only used when each descriptor is in its own directory. -

-This scheme is most appropriate when you are using multiple beans per jar and only process a single -deployment descriptor. You typically want to specify the name of the jar and not derive it from the -beans in the jar. -

- -

Dependencies

In addition to the bean classes, ejbjar is able to ad additional classes to the generated -ejbjar. These classes are typically the support classes which are used by the bean's classes or as -parameters to the bean's methods.

- -

In versions of Ant prior to 1.5, ejbjar used reflection and attempted to add the super -classes and super interfaces of the bean classes. For this technique to work the bean -classes had to be loaded into Ant's JVM. This was not always possible due to class dependencies. -

- -

The ejbjar task in Ant releases 1.5 and later uses the - BCEL library -to analyze the bean's class -files directly, rather than loading them into the JVM. This also allows ejbjar to add all -of the required support classes for a bean and not just super classes. -

- -

In Ant 1.5, a new attribute, dependency has been introduced to allow the -buildfile to control what additional classes are added to the generated jar. It takes three -possible values

none - only the bean classes and interfaces described in the bean's -descriptor are added to the jar.
super - this is the default value and replicates the original ejbjar -behaviour where super classes and super interfaces are added to the jar
full - In this mode all classes used by the bean's classes and interfaces -are added to the jar

The super and full values require the - BCEL library -to be available. If it is not, ejbjar will drop back to the behaviour corresponding to -the value none.

- -

Parameters:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Attribute	Description	Required
descriptordir	The base directory under which to scan for EJB - deployment descriptors. If this attribute is not - specified, then the deployment descriptors must be - located in the directory specified by the 'srcdir' - attribute.	No
srcdir	The base directory containing the .class files that - make up the bean. Included are the home- remote- pk- - and implementation- classes and all classes, that these - depend on. Note that this can be the same as the - descriptordir if all files are in the same directory - tree.	Yes
destdir	The base directory into which generated jar files are - deposited. Jar files are deposited in directories - corresponding to their location within the descriptordir - namespace. Note that this attribute is only used if the - task is generating generic jars (i.e. no vendor-specific - deployment elements have been specified).	Yes, unless vendor-specific deployment elements - have been specified.
cmpversion	Either `1.0` or `2.0`. - Default is `1.0`. - A CMP 2.0 implementation exists currently only for JBoss.	No
naming	Controls the naming convention used to name generated - EJB jars. Please refer to the description above.	No
basejarname	The base name that is used for the generated jar files. - If this attribute is specified, the generic jar file name - will use this value as the prefix (followed by the value - specified in the 'genericjarsuffix' attribute) and the - resultant ejb jar file (followed by any suffix specified - in the nested element).	No
basenameterminator	String value used to substring out a string from the name - of each deployment descriptor found, which is then used to - locate related deployment descriptors (e.g. the WebLogic - descriptors). For example, a basename of '.' and a - deployment descriptor called 'FooBean.ejb-jar.xml' would - result in a basename of 'FooBean' which would then be used - to find FooBean.weblogic-ejb-jar.xml and - FooBean.weblogic-cmp-rdbms-jar.xml, as well as to create - the filenames of the jar files as FooBean-generic.jar and - FooBean-wl.jar. This attribute is not used if the - 'basejarname' attribute is specified.	No, defaults to '-'.
genericjarsuffix	String value appended to the basename of the deployment - descriptor to create the filename of the generic EJB jar - file.	No, defaults to '-generic.jar'.
classpath	This classpath is used when resolving classes which - are to be added to the jar. Typically nested deployment - tool elements will also support a classpath which - will be combined with this classpath when resolving - classes	No.
flatdestdir	Set this attribute to true if you want all generated jars - to be placed in the root of the destdir, rather than - according to the location of the deployment descriptor - within the descriptor dir hierarchy.	No.
dependency	This attribute controls which additional classes and interfaces - are added to the jar. Please refer to the description - above	No.
manifest	the manifest file to use, if any.	No

- -

Nested Elements

- -

In addition to the vendor specific nested elements, the ejbjar task provides -three nested elements.

- -

Classpath

- -

The <classpath> nested element allows the classpath -to be set. It is useful when setting the classpath from a reference path. In all -other respects the behaviour is the same as the classpath attribute.

- -

dtd

- -

The <dtd> element is used to specify the local location of DTDs to be -used when parsing the EJB deployment descriptor. Using a local DTD is much -faster than loading the DTD across the net. If you are running ejbjar behind a -firewall you may not even be able to access the remote DTD. The supported -vendor-specific nested elements know the location of the required DTDs within -the vendor class hierarchy and, in general, this means <dtd> elements are -not required. It does mean, however, that the vendor's class hierarchy must be -available in the classpath when Ant is started. If your want to run Ant without -requiring the vendor classes in the classpath, you would need to use a -<dtd> element.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Attribute	Description	Required
publicId	The public Id of the DTD for which the location is being provided	Yes
location	The location of the local copy of the DTD. This can either be a - file or a resource loadable from the classpath.	Yes

- -

support

- -

The <support> nested element is used to supply additional classes -(files) to be included in the generated jars. The <support> element is a -FileSet, so it can either reference a fileset declared elsewhere or it can be -defined in-place with the appropriate <include> and <exclude> nested -elements. The files in the support fileset are added into the generated EJB jar -in the same relative location as their location within the support fileset. Note -that when ejbjar generates more than one jar file, the support files are added -to each one.

- -

Vendor-specific deployment elements

- -Each vendor-specific nested element controls the generation of a deployable jar -specific to that vendor's EJB container. The parameters for each supported -deployment element are detailed here. - - -

Jboss element

- -

The jboss element searches for the JBoss specific deployment descriptors and adds them -to the final ejb jar file. JBoss has two deployment descriptors: -

jboss.xml
for container manager persistence:
- - - - -
CMP version File name
CMP 1.0 jaws.xml
CMP 2.0 jbosscmp-jdbc.xml
-

-
-. The JBoss server uses hot deployment and does -not require compilation of additional stubs and skeletons.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Attribute	Description	Required
destdir	The base directory into which the generated weblogic ready - jar files are deposited. Jar files are deposited in - directories corresponding to their location within the - descriptordir namespace.	Yes
genericjarsuffix	A generic jar is generated as an intermediate step in - build the weblogic deployment jar. The suffix used to - generate the generic jar file is not particularly - important unless it is desired to keep the generic - jar file. It should not, however, be the same - as the suffix setting.	No, defaults to '-generic.jar'.
suffix	String value appended to the basename of the deployment - descriptor to create the filename of the JBoss EJB - jar file.	No, defaults to '.jar'.
keepgeneric	This controls whether the generic file used as input to - ejbc is retained.	No, defaults to false

- - -

Weblogic element

- -

The weblogic element is used to control the weblogic.ejbc compiler for -generating weblogic EJB jars. Prior to Ant 1.3, the method of locating CMP -descriptors was to use the ejbjar naming convention. So if your ejb-jar was -called, Customer-ejb-jar.xml, your weblogic descriptor was called Customer- -weblogic-ejb-jar.xml and your CMP descriptor had to be Customer-weblogic-cmp- -rdbms-jar.xml. In addition, the <type-storage> element in the weblogic -descriptor had to be set to the standard name META-INF/weblogic-cmp-rdbms- -jar.xml, as that is where the CMP descriptor was mapped to in the generated -jar.

- -

There are a few problems with this scheme. It does not allow for more than -one CMP descriptor to be defined in a jar and it is not compatible with the -deployment descriptors generated by some tools.

- -

In Ant 1.3, ejbjar parses the weblogic deployment descriptor to discover the -CMP descriptors, which are then included automatically. This behaviour is -controlled by the newCMP attribute. Note that if you move to the new method of -determining CMP descriptors, you will need to update your weblogic deployment -descriptor's <type-storage> element. In the above example, you would -define this as META-INF/Customer-weblogic-cmp-rdbms-jar.xml.

Attribute	Description	Required
destdir	The base directory into which the generated weblogic ready - jar files are deposited. Jar files are deposited in - directories corresponding to their location within the - descriptordir namespace.	Yes
genericjarsuffix	A generic jar is generated as an intermediate step in - build the weblogic deployment jar. The suffix used to - generate the generic jar file is not particularly - important unless it is desired to keep the generic - jar file. It should not, however, be the same - as the suffix setting.	No, defaults to '-generic.jar'.
suffix	String value appended to the basename of the deployment - descriptor to create the filename of the WebLogic EJB - jar file.	No, defaults to '.jar'.
classpath	The classpath to be used when running the weblogic ejbc - tool. Note that this tool typically requires the classes - that make up the bean to be available on the classpath. - Currently, however, this will cause the ejbc tool to be - run in a separate VM	No
wlclasspath	Weblogic 6.0 will give a warning if the home and remote interfaces - of a bean are on the system classpath used to run weblogic.ejbc. - In that case, the standard weblogic classes should be set with - this attribute (or equivalent nested element) and the - home and remote interfaces located with the standard classpath - attribute	No
keepgeneric	This controls whether the generic file used as input to - ejbc is retained.	No, defaults to false
compiler	This allows for the selection of a different compiler - to be used for the compilation of the generated Java - files. This could be set, for example, to Jikes to - compile with the Jikes compiler. If this is not set - and the `build.compiler` property is set - to jikes, the Jikes compiler will be used. If this - is not desired, the value "`default`" - may be given to use the default compiler	No
rebuild	This flag controls whether weblogic.ejbc is always - invoked to build the jar file. In certain circumstances, - such as when only a bean class has been changed, the jar - can be generated by merely replacing the changed classes - and not rerunning ejbc. Setting this to false will reduce - the time to run ejbjar. -	No, defaults to true.
keepgenerated	Controls whether weblogic will keep the generated Java - files used to build the class files added to the - jar. This can be useful when debugging -	No, defaults to false.
args	Any additional arguments to be passed to the weblogic.ejbc - tool. -	No.
weblogicdtd	Deprecated. Defines the location of the ejb-jar DTD in - the weblogic class hierarchy. This should not be necessary if you - have weblogic in your classpath. If you do not, you should use a - nested `<dtd>` element, described above. If you do choose - to use an attribute, you should use a - nested `<dtd>` element. -	No.
wldtd	Deprecated. Defines the location of the weblogic-ejb-jar - DTD which covers the Weblogic specific deployment descriptors. - This should not be necessary if you have weblogic in your - classpath. If you do not, you should use a nested `<dtd>` - element, described above. -	No.
ejbdtd	Deprecated. Defines the location of the ejb-jar DTD in - the weblogic class hierarchy. This should not be necessary if you - have weblogic in your classpath. If you do not, you should use a - nested `<dtd>` element, described above. -	No.
newCMP	If this is set to true, the new method for locating - CMP descriptors will be used.	No. Defaults to false
oldCMP	Deprecated This is an antonym for newCMP which should be used instead.	No.
noEJBC	If this attribute is set to true, Weblogic's ejbc will not be run on the EJB jar. - Use this if you prefer to run ejbc at deployment time.	No.
ejbcclass	Specifies the classname of the ejbc compiler. Normally ejbjar determines - the appropriate class based on the DTD used for the EJB. The EJB 2.0 compiler - featured in weblogic 6 has, however, been deprecated in version 7. When - using with version 7 this attribute should be set to - "weblogic.ejbc" to avoid the deprecation warning.	No.
jvmargs	Any additional arguments to be passed to the Virtual Machine - running weblogic.ejbc tool. For example to set the memory size, - this could be jvmargs="-Xmx128m" -	No.
jvmdebuglevel	Sets the weblogic.StdoutSeverityLevel to use when running - the Virtual Machine that executes ejbc. Set to 16 to avoid - the warnings about EJB Home and Remotes being in the classpath -	No.
outputdir	If set ejbc will be given this directory as the output - destination rather than a jar file. This allows for the - generation of "exploded" jars. -	No.

- -

The weblogic nested element supports three nested elements. The -first two, <classpath> and <wlclasspath>, are used to set the -respective classpaths. These nested elements are useful when setting up -class paths using reference Ids. The last, <sysproperty>, allows -Java system properties to be set during the compiler run. This turns out -to be necessary for supporting CMP EJB compilation in all environments. -

- -

TOPLink for Weblogic element

- -

Deprecated

- -

The toplink element is no longer required. Toplink beans can now be built with the standard -weblogic element, as long as the newCMP attribute is set to "true" -

- -

The TopLink element is used to handle beans which use Toplink for the CMP operations. It -is derived from the standard weblogic element so it supports the same set of attributes plus these -additional attributes

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Attribute	Description	Required
toplinkdescriptor	This specifies the name of the TOPLink deployment descriptor file contained in the - 'descriptordir' directory.	Yes
toplinkdtd	This specifies the location of the TOPLink DTD file. This can be a file path or - a file URL. This attribute is not required, but using a local DTD is recommended.	No, defaults to dtd file at www.objectpeople.com.

Examples

- -

This example shows ejbjar being used to generate deployment jars using a -Weblogic EJB container. This example requires the naming standard to be used for -the deployment descriptors. Using this format will create a ejb jar file for -each variation of '*-ejb-jar.xml' that is found in the deployment descriptor -directory.

- -

-    <ejbjar srcdir="${build.classes}"
-            descriptordir="${descriptor.dir}">

-    </ejbjar>
-

- -

If weblogic is not in the Ant classpath, the following example -shows how to specify the location of the weblogic DTDs. This -example also show the use of a nested classpath element.

-

- - -

This example shows ejbjar being used to generate a single deployment jar -using a Weblogic EJB container. This example does not require the deployment -descriptors to use the naming standard. This will create only one ejb jar file - -'TheEJBJar.jar'.

- - -

-    <ejbjar srcdir="${build.classes}"
-            descriptordir="${descriptor.dir}"
-            basejarname="TheEJBJar">
-      <weblogic destdir="${deploymentjars.dir}"
-                classpath="${descriptorbuild.classpath}"/>
-      <include name="**/ejb-jar.xml"/>
-      <exclude name="**/weblogic*.xml"/>
-    </ejbjar>
-

- -

This example shows ejbjar being used to generate deployment jars for a TOPLink-enabled entity bean using a -Weblogic EJB container. This example does not require the deployment descriptors to use the naming standard. -This will create only one TOPLink-enabled ejb jar file - 'Address.jar'.

- -

-    <ejbjar srcdir="${build.dir}"
-            destdir="${solant.ejb.dir}"
-            descriptordir="${descriptor.dir}"

- -

This final example shows how you would set-up ejbjar under Weblogic 6.0. It also shows the use of the -<support> element to add support files

- -

-    <ejbjar descriptordir="${dd.dir}" srcdir="${build.classes.server}">
-       <include name="**/*-ejb-jar.xml"/>
-       <exclude name="**/*-weblogic-ejb-jar.xml"/>

-            <pathelement path="${weblogic.classes}"/>
-         </wlclasspath>
-       </weblogic>
-    </ejbjar>

- - -

WebSphere element

- -

The websphere element searches for the websphere specific deployment descriptors and -adds them to the final ejb jar file. Websphere has two specific descriptors for session -beans: -

ibm-ejb-jar-bnd.xmi
ibm-ejb-jar-ext.xmi

-and another two for container managed entity beans: -

Map.mapxmi
Schema.dbxmi

-In terms of WebSphere, the generation of container code and stubs is called deployment. -This step can be performed by the websphere element as part of the jar generation process. If the -switch ejbdeploy is on, the ejbdeploy tool from the websphere toolset is called for -every ejb-jar. Unfortunately, this step only works, if you use the ibm jdk. Otherwise, the rmic -(called by ejbdeploy) throws a ClassFormatError. Be sure to switch ejbdeploy off, if run ant with -Oracle JDK or OpenJDK. -

- -

-For the websphere element to work, you have to provide a complete classpath, that contains all -classes, that are required to reflect the bean classes. For ejbdeploy to work, you must also provide -the classpath of the ejbdeploy tool and set the websphere.home property (look at the examples below). -

iPlanet Application Server (iAS) element

- -The <iplanet< nested element is used to build iAS-specific stubs and - -skeletons and construct a JAR file which may be deployed to the iPlanet -Application Server 6.0. The build process will always determine if -the EJB stubs/skeletons and the EJB-JAR file are up to date, and it will -do the minimum amount of work required. -

Like the WebLogic element, a naming convention for the EJB descriptors -is most commonly used to specify the name for the completed JAR file. -For example, if the EJB descriptor ejb/Account-ejb-jar.xml is found in -the descriptor directory, the iplanet element will search for an iAS-specific -EJB descriptor file named ejb/Account-ias-ejb-jar.xml (if it isn't found, -the task will fail) and a JAR file named ejb/Account.jar will be written -in the destination directory. Note that when the EJB descriptors -are added to the JAR file, they are automatically renamed META-INF/ejb-jar.xml -and META-INF/ias-ejb-jar.xml.

Of course, this naming behaviour can be modified by specifying attributes -in the ejbjar task (for example, basejarname, basenameterminator, and flatdestdir) -as well as the iplanet element (for example, suffix). Refer to the -appropriate documentation for more details.

-Parameters:

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Attribute	Description	Required
destdir	The base directory into which the generated JAR files will -be written. Each JAR file is written in directories which correspond to -their location within the "descriptordir" namespace.	Yes
classpath	The classpath used when generating EJB stubs and skeletons. -If omitted, the classpath specified in the "ejbjar" parent task will be -used. If specified, the classpath elements will be prepended to the -classpath specified in the parent "ejbjar" task. Note that nested "classpath" -elements may also be used.	No
keepgenerated	Indicates whether or not the Java source files which are -generated by ejbc will be saved or automatically deleted. If "yes", the -source files will be retained. If omitted, it defaults to "no".	No
debug	Indicates whether or not the ejbc utility should log additional debugging -statements to the standard output. If "yes", the additional debugging statements -will be generated. If omitted, it defaults to "no".	No
iashome	May be used to specify the "home" directory for this iAS installation. -This is used to find the ejbc utility if it isn't included in the user's -system path. If specified, it should refer to the [install-location]/iplanet/ias6/ias -directory. If omitted, the ejbc utility must be on the user's system -path.	No
suffix	String value appended to the JAR filename when creating each JAR. -If omitted, it defaults to ".jar".	No

- -

As noted above, the iplanet element supports additional <classpath> -nested elements.

-Examples

-This example demonstrates the typical use of the <iplanet> nested element. -It will name each EJB-JAR using the "basename" prepended to each standard -EJB descriptor. For example, if the descriptor named "Account-ejb-jar.xml" -is processed, the EJB-JAR will be named "Account.jar" -

-    <ejbjar srcdir="${build.classesdir}"
-            descriptordir="${src}">
-
-            <iplanet destdir="${assemble.ejbjar}"
-                     classpath="${ias.ejbc.cpath}"/>
-            <include name="**/*-ejb-jar.xml"/>
-            <exclude name="**/*ias-*.xml"/>
-    </ejbjar>

- -This example demonstrates the use of a nested classpath element as well -as some of the other optional attributes. -

-    <ejbjar srcdir="${build.classesdir}"
-            descriptordir="${src}">
-
-            <iplanet destdir="${assemble.ejbjar}"
-                     iashome="${ias.home}"
-                     debug="yes"
-                     keepgenerated="yes">
-                     <classpath>
-                         <pathelement path="."/>
-                         <pathelement path="${build.classpath}"/>
-                     </classpath>
-            </iplanet>
-            <include name="**/*-ejb-jar.xml"/>
-            <exclude name="**/*ias-*.xml"/>
-    </ejbjar>

- -This example demonstrates the use of basejarname attribute. In this -case, the completed EJB-JAR will be named "HelloWorld.jar" If multiple -EJB descriptors might be found, care must be taken to ensure that the completed -JAR files don't overwrite each other. -

-    <ejbjar srcdir="${build.classesdir}"
-            descriptordir="${src}"
-            basejarname="HelloWorld">
-
-            <iplanet destdir="${assemble.ejbjar}"
-                     classpath="${ias.ejbc.cpath}"/>
-            <include name="**/*-ejb-jar.xml"/>
-            <exclude name="**/*ias-*.xml"/>
-    </ejbjar>

-This example demonstrates the use of the dtd nested element. If the local -copies of the DTDs are included in the classpath, they will be automatically -referenced without the nested elements. In iAS 6.0 SP2, these local DTDs are -found in the [iAS-install-directory]/APPS directory. In iAS 6.0 SP3, these -local DTDs are found in the [iAS-install-directory]/dtd directory. -

-    <ejbjar srcdir="${build.classesdir}"
-            descriptordir="${src}">
-            <iplanet destdir="${assemble.ejbjar}">
-                     classpath="${ias.ejbc.cpath}"/>
-            <include name="**/*-ejb-jar.xml"/>

JOnAS (Java Open Application Server) element

- -

The <jonas> nested element is used to build JOnAS-specific stubs and -skeletons thanks to the GenIC specific tool, and construct a JAR -file which may be deployed to the JOnAS Application Server. The build process -will always determine if the EJB stubs/skeletons and the EJB-JAR file are up to -date, and it will do the minimum amount of work required.

- -

Like the WebLogic element, a naming convention for the EJB descriptors is -most commonly used to specify the name for the completed JAR file. For example, -if the EJB descriptor ejb/Account-ejb-jar.xml is found in the -descriptor directory, the <jonas> element will search for a JOnAS-specific -EJB descriptor file named ejb/Account-jonas-ejb-jar.xml and a JAR -file named ejb/Account.jar will be written in the destination -directory. But the <jonas> element can also use the JOnAS naming -convention. With the same example as below, the EJB descriptor can also be named -ejb/Account.xml (no base name terminator here) in the descriptor -directory. Then the <jonas> element will search for a JOnAS-specific EJB -descriptor file called ejb/jonas-Account.xml. This convention do -not follow strictly the ejb-jar naming convention recommendation but is -supported for backward compatibility with previous version of JOnAS.

- -

Note that when the EJB descriptors are added to the JAR file, they are -automatically renamed META-INF/ejb-jar.xml and -META-INF/jonas-ejb-jar.xml.

- -

Of course, this naming behavior can be modified by specifying attributes in -the ejbjar task (for example, basejarname, basenameterminator, and flatdestdir) -as well as the iplanet element (for example, suffix). Refer to the appropriate -documentation for more details.
