  1. Enterprise JavaBeans EJB Container Services

  2. EJB container • Enterprise JavaBeans are deployed in an EJB container within the application server • EJB container manages the execution of enterprise beans for Java EE applications • EJB benefit - container is charged with the task of making system services available to EJB components

  3. J2EE Components and Container http://java.sun.com/blueprints/guidelines/designing_enterprise_applications/platform_technologies/component/index.html

  4. EJB container services Container-provided services: • Persistence • Transactions • Security • JNDI • Distribution • Concurrency • Multi-threading • Component pooling • Component life cycle • Timer service • Interceptors

  5. Persistence Java Persistence API • @Entity • public class Customer { • @Id private int id; • private String name; • @OneToMany • private List<Account>accounts; • . . . • } • @Entity • public class Account { • @Id • private int id; • . . . • }

  6. Transactions • A transaction is a group of activities performed as a single unit • Transaction demarcation types: • Container-managed • Declarative, default • Bean-managed • User transaction API • Annotation @TransactionManagement • Is applied to bean class • Values: CONTAINER or BEAN

  7. Example: Container-managed @TransactionAttribute(MANDATORY) @Stateless public class ShopBean implements Shop { public void setPrice(int prodId, int price){ ... } @TransactionAttribute(REQUIRED) public int getPrice(int prodId){ ... } }

  8. Transaction Attribute Definitions http://java.sys-con.com/read/325149.htm

  9. Example: Bean-managed @TransactionManagement(BEAN) @Stateless public class ShopBean implements Shop { @Resource UserTransaction tx; @PersistenceContext EntityManager productMgr; public void setPrice(int prodId, int price){ tx.begin(); productMgr.find(Product.class, prodId).setPrice(price); tx.commit(); } }

  10. Security • Security is very important in the enterprise environment • Authentication • Authorization • Security annotations • @DeclareRoles • @DenyAll • @PermitAll • @RolesAllowed • @RunAs

  11. Example: Security @Stateless @DeclareRoles({“javaee"}) public class HelloEJB implements Hello { @PermitAll public String hello1(String msg) { return "1: Hello, " + msg; } @RolesAllowed("javaee") public String hello2(String msg) { return "2: Hello, " + msg; } @DenyAll public String hello3(String msg) { return "3: Hello, " + msg; } }

  12. Example: Security @Stateless @DeclareRoles({"A", "B"}) public class HelloEJB implements Hello { @Resource private SessionContext sc; public String hello(String msg) { if (sc.isCallerInRole("A") && !sc.isCallerInRole("B")){ ... } else { ... } } }

  13. JNDI • JNDI = Java Naming and Directory Interface • API that provides naming and directory functionality to applications • store and retrieve named Java objects of any type • associate attributes with objects and search for objects using their attributes • A naming service helps organize an enterprise application by acting as a central registry for components

  14. Naming and Directory services • JNDI is independent of any specific directory service implementation • LDAP, DNS, NIS, RMI, CORBA http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-01-2000/jw-01-howto.html http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-02-2000/jw-02-howto.html

  15. JNDI functions • void bind(String stringName, Object object) • Binds a name to an object • Object lookup(String stringName) • Returns the specified object import javax.naming.Context;import javax.naming.InitialContext; Context ctx = new InitialContext(); Calculator calculatorRemote = (Calculator).lookup("CalculatorBean/remote");

  16. JNDI architecture http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/tutorial/getStarted/overview/index.html

  17. Bean pooling • To reduce memory consumption and processing, containers pool resources and manage the lifecycles of all the beans very carefully • When a bean is not being used, a container will place it in a pool to be reused by another client • The container copies data into or out of these pooled instances as necessary • The best thing - client application is completely unaware of the resource management activities

  18. Bean pooling benefits • Reduces the resource requirements for a single server • pooled beans are context switched as required • Dynamic growth pool can be expanded/contracted as demand requires • Pooled objects are instantiated on startup instead of every time • may be expensive to instantiate • Fine-grained control of resources able to set max/min beans

  19. Bean lifecycle management • Two strategies to perform lifecycle management: • instance pooling • passivation/activation • Passivation is a technique to temporarily serialize a bean and store it to some persistent store • Containers free up resources by passivating a bean and then re-activating it when resources are available
