<h2><a name="introduction">Introduction</a></h2>
<p>Ant provides a number of optional tasks for developing
<a href="http://java.sun.com/products/ejb">Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs)</a>.
In general these tasks are specific to the particular vendor's EJB Server. At present the tasks support
<a href="http://www.bea.com">Weblogic</a> 4.5.1 and 5.1 EJB servers. Over time we expect further optional tasks
to support additional EJB Servers.

<h3><b>Description:</b></h3>
<p>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.
<h3>Parameters:</h3>

<h2><a name="ejbc">ejbc</a></h2>
<h3><b>Description:</b></h3>
<p>The ejbc task will run Weblogic's ejbc tool. This tool will take a serialised 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.
<p>
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 serialised deployment descriptors. The standard ant
<code>include</code> and <code>exclude</code> constructs can be used to select the deployment descriptors
to be included.
<p>
Each descriptor is examined to determiune whether the generated classes are out of date and need to be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 serialised 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or are out of date, the ejbc tool is run to generate new versions.

EJB Documentation
Posted by Conor MacNeill <co...@m64.com>.
I have put together a first cut at documentation for the EJB related
optional tasks. I am intending to rewrite these tasks a little to take
advantage of the class loader I recently added. This should save creating a
VM for the helper tasks.
The wlrun and wlstop tasks really need the ability to run tasks
asynchronously, so I have not bothered to document these just yet.
I am hoping Tim Fennell can give me some docs for the ejbjar task. I will
probably need to use it soon too :-)
