Obtaining a ConnectionFactory
Enterprise
Java
• Using annotations
@Stateless
public class SellerEJB ... {
@Resource(mappedName=“java:/JmsXA")
private ConnectionFactory connFactory;
– mappedName points to global JNDI name
– benefits
• concise & simple
– drawbacks
• mixes deployment concepts with Java code

Obtaining a ConnectionFactory (cont.)
• Using ejb-jar.xml
<ejb-name>SellerEJB</ejb-name>
<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jms/ConnectionFactory</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.jms.ConnectionFactory</res-type>

ejava.examples.asyncmarket.ejb.SellerEJB
</injection-target-class>
<injection-target-name>
connFactory
</injection-target-name>
</injection-target>
</resource-ref>
...
– mappedName moved away from code to DD
– factory injected into EJB
– ejb-jar.xml is no longer vendor/deployment-neutral

EJB JMS Consumers; MDBs
Enterprise
Java
• “Message Driven Bean”
• Introduced in EJB 2.0 to support JMS providers
• Extended in EJB 2.1 to support non-JMS message
providers
– using the Java EE Connector API
• commonly called JCA
• EJB 3.0 added @Annotation support for configuration
• Java EE Providers
– must support a JMS provider
– must support external providers through JCA
• Session and Entity Beans cannot be a MessageListener
– can poll for messages with MessageConsumer.receive()
– can be wrapped by an MDB to be called asynchronously

Asynchronous Methods
Enterprise
Java
• Scenario
– Task(s) may take considerable time to complete
– Client need not wait for them to complete
• @javax.ejb.Asynchronous
– Return control to the client before EJB is invoked
– Any session bean business method may be made
@Asynchronous* (*see Serialization note below)
• null return type
– Client and issued task fully decoupled from one another
• java.util.concurrent.Future return type
– Allows task and client to coordinate a future return value
– Client returns instance of javax.ejb.AsyncResult
– Not Serializable (i.e., cannot use directly with RMI client)

EJB Timers
Enterprise
Java
• Performs similar role of job schedulers
– “cron”
• Two types
– Single-action
• createTimer(Date expiration, Serializable info)
– fires once at or after a specific time in the future
• createTimer(long duration, Serializable info)
– fires once after a specific delay period
– Interval-timer
• createTimer(Date intialExpiration, long
intervalDuration, Serializable info)
– continually fires every intervalDuration after the
initialExpiration time
• createTimer(long initialDuration, long
intervalDuration, Serializable info)
– continually fires every intervalDuration after the
initialDuration delay
