Client-side code gets EJBHome

Context initialContext = new InitialContext();

CartHome cartHome = (CartHome)

initialContext.lookup

(“applications/mall/shopping-carts”);

• Client-side code may be written in Java in an applet, application or servlet, or in a C++ application using CORBA.

• Getting the home of the remote bean:

  • InitialContext gets the root of the JNDI naming hierarchy
  • lookup method gets the instance of CartHome wanted (from a known JNDI path).
  • The actual container and server are transparent to the user - a container can be on several servers.
