Thank you for your reply Kenneth.
What you suggested worked great in my test project in which one ejb
makes remote call to another ejb in a different GL instance.
Now I have another follow up question, hope you don't mind.
Is there another way to achieve the same cross ejb and cross GL instance
remote call so that the remote ejb's host name and port are specified
programmatically rather than statically in sun-ejb-jar.xml ?
The reason I asked is, we can configure sun-ejb-jar.xml for it to point
to a target EJB in a development environment during coding. But then
after development the same project will be deployed to different
environments such as UAT, Production and a few other environments in
between. This would mean every time we deploy the same project to a
different environment the deployer would need to rememeber to change the
host name/port in the sun-ejb-jar.xml file so that they can point to the
target environment that the project is being deployed into.
Would it be possible to specify the host_name and port programmatically
? So that these information can be looked up as system properties from
the GL instance in the environment that the project is being deployed into ?
Hope my question makes sense and thanks again for your help.
Regards,
Ming
