[Jython-dev] RE: EJB access from Jython

[Thomas B. B. <tb...@sy...>]

In addition to the question posted previously, I can now add the following:

I've tried something like this:

...
from vm import SimpleBean
from vm import SimpleBeanHome
from javax.naming import Context
from javax.naming import InitialContext
from javax.rmi import PortableRemoteObject
initCtx = InitialContext()
sbHomeRef = initCtx.lookup('ejb/SimpleBean')
...

from within my Jython script. Until this point,  everything works fine. This
is very similar to the "standard" way of looking up an EJB from a J2EE
program. However, when you in Java at this point would write:

sbHome = (SimpleBeanHome)
PortableRemoteObject.narrow(sbHomeRef, 
SimpleBeanHome.class);
sb = sbHome.create();

next, in Jython I'm not sure how to go about this? How can I get the remote
interface created? 

Cheers,
Thomas
