I used SCWCD exam study kit and three mock tests within the book only. Good luck, guys!

I have same question here. In WAS3.5, we can re-deploy an individual EJB if there is a change, but in the 4.0 or later, we can only re-deploy the whole enterprise application for a single EJB change? Thanks for any reply.

You may need Version 4.0 FixPak 4. we use Webspher 4.0.4 and upload works fine.
Hope this helps

What am I doing now is deleting the EJB from the .ear file, adding the EJB to the ear file through AAT, then deleting the whole application, finally re-installing the application using the .ear file.
Any better ways to avoid deleting/re-installing the whole application?
many thanks!

Hello Graham,
Thanks for your help. Setting a context parameter in web.xml works very well as you suggested. But I am working on moving a legacy application from websphere3.5/VAJ4.0-->WSAD4.03-->websphere 4.04. I don't want to change any exsiting code although I can. I checked the DTD file from SUN http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_2.dtd
Looks like there are no place to config ServletConfig in web.xml.
Many thanks!

Thanks for your reply. I tried what you said, still got null value by using config.getInitParameter("parameterName") in JSP page. And what I want is that this parameter can be accessed by any jsps in my application not only one paticular jsp. I know how to do it in VAJ and websphere 3.5. I don't know how can I set up it in WSAD and websphere 4.0.
Many thanks!

So I can get the vaule in my jsp using
<%=config.getInitParameter("parameterName")%<
Many thanks!

How can I catch those during the validation time?
<IMPORTANTCODE_ID/> <IMPORTANTCODE_ID></IMPORTANTCODE_ID> <IMPORTANTCODE_ID> </IMPORTANTCODE_ID>
Thanks!

Thanks, Kyle!

Thanks, kyle. If I can maintain a state, I dont need ask the client to pass me the userid/password for the next several transactions after it provides me at the first time(like online shopping or even this forum system). I may also keep the client's profile somewhere instead of retriveing it again and again from other places.

Thanks for your prompt reply. Keeping a stateless web services definitely makes my application simple and efficient. But I have a series of transactions, if I dont maintain a state, which means I need prompt the client to pass me user_id and password for each of the transaction. Are there any other smarter ways?

I am using WSAD, Thanks!

Thanks, Kyle. I fixed it by adding the user-defined class to the run time path of the server instance.

I also did add the user-defined class the "Java Build Path" of the EJB project.
thanks,

Hello,
I am doing the migration from VAJ4.0-->WSAD4.0.3. When I try to start the server which has one EJB group, I get errors. Looks like the EJB server cant find the user-defined class at run time. There are no compile errors and I did "Deploy and RMIC code..." for the EJB module without errors. I have tested that if the EJB uses only build-in class(String), it works fine.
can any one help me please,
thanks,
Yang
