Security, Transaction services and lifecycle are service of EJB or Container. What is of EJB and what is of Container ?

I would almost say that all of these are "of" the container.
- Security is enforced (declarative) and enabled (for programmatic security) by the container, which implements the necessary interfaces and contracts defined in the EJB specification.
- Transaction services are implemented by the container, although part of the actual transaction management might be incorporated into the supporting EJB classes generated by the container.
- Lifecycle management is also handled by the container as the EJBs live and die under the strict control of the container.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
Container that implements J2EE specs should supports/provide this kinda services.
