Home interface
-
creates a new EJB Object,
-
removes an EJB Object,
-
returns the metadata containing information about the enterprise bean. Returned object implements javax.ejb.EJBMetaData interface and can be used by application assembly tools and scripting, and
-
returns a handle object for the home.
|
|
EJB Object delegates the remote interface calls to the enterprise bean implementation.
|
|
EJB Object additionally provides operations to get the home's reference, object's handle, test whether two EJB Objects are identical, and remove the object.
|
|
Session beans are created for the requesting client therefore they have no identity and their home interface does not define finder pattern.
