Testing EJB Consumption in NetBeans 6 Visual Web Projects

Test a version of NetBeans 6 Visual Web trunk later than 2007-06-07T22:30 (UTC).

Server-side Setup

First, set up a server-side EJB service. For example, deploy the sample converter-client.ear to Sun AS 9.1. Download the client-side jar from the app server and save it. As of 2007-06-07, if you use Sun AS 9.1 you need to manually extract the ejb-client-ic.jar containing the EJB client stubs from the downloaded app-client-ic.jar.

IDE Test Cases

Scenario 1:

• Create new visual web JSF project
• Services Tab->Enterprise Java Beans->Add Set of Session EJBs
  • Use the ejb-client-ic.jar as the client jar file.
  • Press "Next", "Finish" and wait while the IDE generates wrapper jars.
• Expand Services Tab->Enterprise Java Beans
• Drag and drop or invoke context menu item for new Session Bean and activate "Add To Page"
• Build rest of app by adding text field, group message, and submit button, etc. Add call to session bean wrapper in code.
• Press "Run" to build and deploy to Sun AS 9.1
• Test app in browser.

Other Items to Test

• Remove Session bean should work
