Best practice for customizing EJB property after deployment

[lee_dong]

Hi Gurus,

What is the best practice for customizing EJB property after deployment in NW7.1? I have a stateless session bean and it needs to get some environment information before acting. While the information can only be known at runtime. What should I do to achieve it? I thought I can bind the property with a JNDI context but I did not find out where to declare and change the context value. Please advise. Thanks.

Hi Lee,

Env entries are perfect for this purpose. And you can edit them online - just start the NWA and go to Configuration Management -> Infrastructure -> Application Modules, choose your ejb-jar module and bean, and change the value as required.

HTH!

Thanks. While at that location I did not see any entry which is editable. I guess I still need to declare the env entry somewhere like ejb-jar.xml?

Sure. First you need to declare it in ejb-jar.xml or @Resource and then you'll see it and be able to edit it in the NWA. From the list of modules you'll have to select your module and then in the "EJB Module Details" go to the "Environment & References" tab.

Hi.

I have a similar problem. But I still can not edit the properties of the ejb-jar.xml.

I tried to stop the web service, but the properties still remain unmodifiable.

Could you advise me how to change them?
