Hi all...
Can anyone plz., explain me how a team of developers can develop an EJB project using WebSphere 4.0 and VAJ.
i specifically to know how the development environment can b setup.
Say for instance if i install WAS on a machine then how the developers can access it and deploy the .jar/.ear/.war files on the server which they develop on their respective machines using VAJ.
My question is "Is there any way thru which we can configure VAJ to directly connect to that actual machine running WAS ? "
Currently our team is using VAJ for an EJB proj.
Do we actually need to generate the deployed code again for the jar file thru AAT of WAS which we generate from VAJ ???
Do we need to have a WAS installed on each of the developers machines...???
I'd b very happy if KYLE could address this issue and explain in detail...
Thanx in Advance...
Meghana

The answer, sadly is "no". Also, remember that VAJ 4.0 will NOT create WAR and EAR files. It is only capable of creating EJB JAR files (for EJB 1.0 and 1.1) and regular .class files and .jar files. Once you create the EJB JAR files you have to physically move them somewhere else to test them in WAS 4.0

Currently our team is using VAJ for an EJB proj.

For an EJB file, no. VAJ 4.0 will generate your EJB JAR file for you and there is no reason to pass it through AAT again EXCEPT to include it in an EAR file prior to deployment (recommended, but not necessary).

Do we need to have a WAS installed on each of the developers machines...???

You don't have to, but that is often the most convenient.
