Use

Before you create an enterprise bean, you need an EJB Module project to which you can assign it. The EJB Module project also contains the deployment descriptors that will be included in the JAR file when the project is built. The EJB Module Project can be referenced from an Enterprise Application project for deployment.

Prerequisites

The relevant development configuration has been imported. See Importing a Development Configuration.

Procedure

       1.      Choose File ® New ® Project…

       2.      On the left pane of the first wizard page, choose Development Component, and on the right pane, select Development Component Project.

       3.      Choose Next.

       4.      Select the software component to which the development component is to be assigned.

       5.      Choose Next.

       6.      Specify the project:

Attribute

Description

Vendor

Globally unique vendor ID. It is recommended that you derive this name from the Internet domain of the provider (for example, sap.com).

Name

Unique component name. For more information, refer to Structure linkSyntax of naming.  

Caption

Name with which the DC is referred to in visual tools.

Language

Original language of the DC project.

Local Development Component

Flags the DC as a local DC. You should only activate this option if the DC is not to be checked in to the DTR, but only to be created locally. In this case, no assignment is made to a DTR activity.

However, you can assign the local DC to an activity at a later stage in the project processing. 

Sync Used Archives

Select this if you want to add a standard set of DCs to be used to the DC to be created. The relevant DCs are then synchronized from the DTR and listed individually in the new DC project under Used DCs.

Type

Choose J2EE ® EJB Module.

       7.      Choose Next.

       8.      Choose Finish.
