[Springframework-developer] Are there scenarios where EJB is a better option than Spring?

[Garvey, P. M \(GE C. Finance\) <pau...@ge...>]

All,=20
I am fairly new to Spring and I have started reading
"Expert One-On-One J2EE Development without EJB"
1.	I am trying to find senarios where EJB is a better option
	than Spring but so far I haven't found any in the book.=20
      Just started reading BTW.
2.   	What are some of the weaknesses of Spring? The weasknesses
      of EJB is well documented by the book.
BTW, very good book, I intend to read it in its entirety.

You must be in the single digits of your reading! :-)

Try Page 11, "Should We Ever Use EJB?"

I don't think that Spring and EJB are mutually exclusive. If you have a
problem that requires an EJB solution, there isn't any reason why you could
not use Spring to help write those EJBs.

ditto.
i'm using AbstractStatelessSessionBean to integrate my application into 
an EJB service.
i did this to show my collegues that Spring can integrate with EJB 
seemlessly,
and you end up with a system that is not tightly coupled to EJB.
i had no intention of using EJB in the first place.. but our prototyping 
with
various J2EE stacks gave a lot of comfort to those who are indoctrinated 
with
weblogic, webspehere, etc.
