ejbjar, weblogic tasks: where to put the JNDI info

[Adam Hardy <ad...@cyberspaceroad.com>]

I'm teaching myself EJB using Mastering EJB from Roman, and I'm just 
doing the 'hello world' EJB, the first project.

This is ant task I've composed, and I'm using weblogic7:

<target name="ejbjar"
         description="Make the EJB jar file">
   <mkdir  dir="${dist.home}"/>
   <ejbjar srcdir="${build.home}/classes"
           descriptordir="${descriptor.dir}"
           naming="ejb-name"
           dependency="none">
     <dtd publicId="-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//.....blabla"
          location="${dtd.dir}/ejb-jar_2_0.dtd"/>
     <dtd publicId="-//BEA Systems, Inc.//DTD WebLogiblabla"
          location="${dtd.dir}/weblogic700/weblogic-ejb-jar.dtd"/>
     <weblogic destdir="${dist.home}" ejbcclass="weblogic.ejbc">
       <classpath refid="compile.classpath"/>
     </weblogic>
   </ejbjar>
   <echo  message="deployed jar to ${dist.home}"/>
</target>

There are 2 ejb-jar.xml files, one vanilla and one weblogic-ejb-jar.xml.

This makes 2 jar files, one called Hello.jar and one called null.jar 
which I don't understand. I think there should only be one.

Secondly the only reason for the existence of the weblogic-ejb-jar.xml 
is because I copied it from the book's sample files. It contains the 
JNDI declaration

<weblogic-ejb-jar>
  <weblogic-enterprise-bean>
   <ejb-name>Hello</ejb-name>
   <jndi-name>HelloHome</jndi-name>
   <local-jndi-name>HelloLocalHome</local-jndi-name>
  </weblogic-enterprise-bean>
</weblogic-ejb-jar>

Can't this JNDI stuff go in the generic ejb-jar.xml? Or is this just not 
possible in EJB2.0?


TIA
