Hi Scott,

Both EJBControl.JNDIEnv and EJBControl.EJBHome annotations are defined
as property sets, which means that on the generated EJBControl bean
there will be getters and setters for each of the annotation fields.

However, for the EJB control this doesn't do much good since both of
these annotations are used in the onCreate() method of the control (so
you could change the values but the new values would never be used
since the onCreate() method would have been already been called).

Another option would be to use an annotation override to specify the
new values you want, this may or may not be what you are looking for
depending on how things are packaged.  To do an annotation override,
you would need to do something like this in the control client:


.
.
.
@Control
@EJBHome(jndiName=<new value here>)
@JNDIContextEnv(providerURL=<new value here>)
private MyEJBControl _ejbControl;
.
.
.

I have a need to access EJBs deployed on a different domain from a Beehive 
pageflow in a WebLogic Portal 9.2 application.  I am currently using an EJB 
control to do so.  As long as I code the providerURL and credentials at design 
time, this is not a problem.

I am interested in a way to set those values at runtime such that I can 
configure the values for a deployment of my portal application without having 
to modify my EAR.  As an alternative, I could use the ServiceLocator pattern, 
but I thought I'd test this path first.

1. Is it actually possible to specify annotation values for EJB controls at 
runtime?  Specifically, the values in the EJBControl.JNDIContextEnv annotation.

2. Where in the Beehive control or pageflow lifecycles may I safely set such 
values?

Thanks,
Scott

PS - I am new to this list, so I apologize if this has been answered in the 
past.  I was unable to find a search for the archives.
