eclipse ejb ?

[Sam Doder]

I have my ejb bean classes create on my desktop.
I am trying to do ejb thru eclipse. So I selected the new > ejb project in eclipse.

This gave me
ejbModule directory
META-INF
ejb-jar.xml
manifest.mf
an empty build directory

Right of the bat the project had one error because the ejb-jar.xml needed one ejb defined for it

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ejb-jar id="ejb-jar_ID" version="2.1" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/ejb-jar_2_1.xsd">
	<display-name>EJBTester</display-name>
</ejb-jar>

Ok

so I quickly stole some code off a website and made my ejb-jar.xml
like

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ejb-jar id="ejb-jar_ID" version="2.1" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/ejb-jar_2_1.xsd">
	<display-name>EJBTester</display-name>
	<enterprise-beans>
  <session>
    <ejb-name>hello</ejb-name>
    <home>myejb.HelloHome</home>
    <remote>myejb.Hello</remote>
    <ejb-class>myejb.HelloBean</ejb-class>
    <session-type>Stateless</session-type>
    <transaction-type>Bean</transaction-type>
  </session>
</enterprise-beans> 
</ejb-jar>

now under the deployment descriptor under SessionBean their is
hello which has
Hello
HelloHome
HelloBean
as subelements

But where or how do I add my classes into this project ?
Everytime I try to create a New > Session Bean it asks my for a EJB project to use but none are available from the drop down

[Sam Doder]

Never mind the project facet was set to EJB 2.0
Changed to EJB 3 and now lets me create a new SessionBean , EntityBean ,...etc

Curious though usually EJB where
Home , EJBObject ,... etc

I see they are using local , remote endings did they change this in EJB 3.0 ?

Yes. Quite a few changes have been made. For example for a stateless session bean all you need to do is annotate the POJO class with @Stateless annotation (if you are using annotation based configuration).
