Glassfish (and also AS 8.1)
does not normally use rmic. We generate classes dynamically
for stubs using BCEL. rmic is still used in the case where
a client jar containing stubs is explicitly requested (for
interoperability with non-Sun CORBA implementations), but that
is not the default.
I'm not sure about ejbc, but I think most of this is done with
dynamic proxies in glassfish. Ken Saks or Mahesh Kannan could
confirm this.
Ken.
