To create a simple EJB module, we will use NetBeans, "New project" wizard. In the example given below, We will create an EJB module project named Component.
Create Project
In NetBeans IDE, select File > New Project >. You will see the following screen
Select project type under category Java EE, Project type as EJB Module. Click Next > button. You will see the following screen.
Enter project name and location. Click Next > button. You will see the following screen.
Select Server as JBoss Application Server. Click Finish button. You will see the following project created by NetBeans.
Create a Sample EJB
To create a simple EJB, we will use NetBeans "New" wizard. In the example given below, We will create a stateless EJB class named librarySessionBean under EjbComponent project.
Select project EjbComponent in project explorer window and right click on it. Select, New > Session Bean. You will see the New Session Bean wizard.
Enter session bean name and package name. Click Finish button. You will see the following EJB classes created by NetBeans.
LibrarySessionBean − stateless session bean
LibrarySessionBeanLocal − local interface for session bean
I am changing local interface to remote interface as we are going to access our EJB in a console based application. Remote/Local interface is used to expose business methods that an EJB has to implement.
LibrarySessionBeanLocal is renamed to LibrarySessionBeanRemote and LibrarySessionBean implements LibrarySessionBeanRemote interface.
LibrarySessionBeanRemote
package com.tutorialspoint.stateless;
import java.util.List;
import javax.ejb.Remote;
@Remote
public interface LibrarySessionBeanRemote {
void addBook(String bookName);
List getBooks();
}
LibrarySessionBean
package com.tutorialspoint.stateless;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
import javax.ejb.Stateless;
@Stateless
public class LibrarySessionBean implements LibrarySessionBeanRemote {
List<String> bookShelf;
public LibrarySessionBean() {
bookShelf = new ArrayList<String>();
}
public void addBook(String bookName) {
bookShelf.add(bookName);
}
public List<String> getBooks() {
return bookShelf;
}
}
Build the Project
- Select EjbComponent project in Project Explorer window.
- Right click on it to open context menu.
- Select clean and build.
You will see the following output in NetBeans console output.
