Well, Tomcat needs to 'colloquiate' with an application server (where EJBs are deployed). The answer is yes, it's possible; all your application needs to do is to establish a context with an application server and then it can use the component deployed on application server generally using a lookup.
Here follow a snippet from a code: InitialContext context = null; //getJbossContext() sets up the correct property file and returns a context initialized to that property file context = getJbossContext(); Object node = context.lookup(sessionName); PeopleDbManagerHome home = (PeopleDbManagerHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(node, PeopleDbManagerHome.class); bean = home.create(); } catch (RemoteException e) { printRemoteExceptionMessage(); return null; } Hope it will help, Marco ----- Original Message ----- From: "zeallousbigpond.net.au" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 1:17 AM Subject: EJB in tomcat > hi, > > I would like to ask, can Tomcat work with Enterprise > Javabeans?
