| <h1 class="topictitle1">Exporting EJB projects to EJB JAR files</h1> |
| <div><p>After you have tested your enterprise beans, you can export the |
| module into an EJB JAR file.</p> |
| <div class="section"><p>When you export an EJB module, or project, the contents of the |
| project are exported into an EJB JAR file regardless of whether deployment |
| code has been generated or not. You can use the exported server-side JAR file |
| as the client JAR file, since it contains all of the required code from both |
| a server-side and client-side perspective.</p> |
| <div class="important" id="teexp__exportEJBClientJAR"><a name="teexp__exportEJBClientJAR"><!-- --></a><span class="importanttitle">Important: </span>If you use the Export EJB JAR file wizard to export an EJB |
| project, the export wizard does not include an EJB project's associated EJB |
| client JAR project. To include the EJB client JAR file, it is recommended |
| that you export the enterprise application EAR file that contains the EJB |
| project. The resulting EAR file will include any dependent EJB client JAR |
| files as utility JAR files. Alternatively, you can export the EJB client JAR |
| project separately as a JAR file.</div> |
| <p>To export an EJB project:</p> |
| </div> |
| <ol><li class="stepexpand"><span>In the Project Explorer view of the J2EE perspective, right-click |
| the EJB module that you want to export.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>Select <span class="menucascade"><span class="uicontrol">Export</span> > <span class="uicontrol">EJB |
| JAR file</span></span> from the pop-up menu. The Export wizard |
| opens.</span> </li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>Select the EJB module to export from the drop-down list.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>In the <span class="uicontrol">Destination</span> field, provide the full |
| path and JAR file name for the exported EJB module.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><strong>Optional: </strong><span>To include source files in the exported JAR |
| file, select the <span class="uicontrol">Export source files</span> check box.</span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><strong>Optional: </strong><span>If you are exporting to an existing JAR file |
| and you do not want to be warned about overwriting it, select <span class="uicontrol">Overwrite |
| existing files without warning</span></span></li> |
| <li class="stepexpand"><span>Click <span class="uicontrol">Finish</span>.</span></li> |
| </ol> |
| <div class="section"> <p>To deploy your EJB JAR file to an application server after you |
| export it, you need to use the deployment tools provided by the vendor of |
| that server.</p> |
