This application will take you through plugin export and import using Apache Geronimo. We will enlist the
We have used an existing tutorial from tutorial section. Refer Stateless Session Bean tutorial for application development and deployment first. Later we will use Apache Geronimo to Export the application and dependencies as plugin and import the same.
To run this tutorial, as a minimum you will be required to have installed the following prerequisite software.
- Apache Geronimo 2.1.1
- Sun JDK 5.0+ (J2SE 1.5)
- Eclipse 3.3.1.1 (Eclipse Classic package of Europa distribution), which is platform specific
- Web Tools Platform (WTP) 2.0.1
- Data Tools Platform (DTP) 1.5.1
- Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) 2.3.1
- Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) 3.3.1
Details on installing eclipse are provided in the Development environment section.
This tutorial is organized in the following sections:

. Once done refer the illustration in this tutorial to export and import JEE artifacts from Apache Geronimo administration console.

Due to some limitations in Geronimo Eclipse Plugin the generated deployment plan(openejb-jar.xml) does not have the correct namespace. Replace the existing namespace as shown in the figure with the following <openejb-jar xmlns="http://www.openejb.org/xml/ns/openejb-jar-2.2" xmlns:nam="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/naming-1.2" xmlns:pkgen="http://www.openejb.org/xml/ns/pkgen-2.0" xmlns:sec="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/security-1.2" xmlns:sys="http://geronimo.apache.org/xml/ns/deployment-1.2"> |

This form is the login page for our application. Once the user enters his/her credentials, these are passed to another jsp passCredentials.jsp(checkout the action in the form tag) to verify the authenticity of user credentials. In case the user is new he has to go through the registration process. This statement <a href="http://localhost:8080/ApplicationClient/register.jsp">NewUser</a> is used to route the user to registration page. Code Block |

<%!boolean i; %> is a declaration for a global variable. The other part is a scriptlet which does a JNDI lookup to the remote interface. Later the user credentials are passed to verify function.

This page is the registration page. Once th user fills up the form and press Submit a valform() function is called which validates the field username and password. In case any of them is empty an alert is send which suggests empty fields in the form. If all is fine passVariables.jsp is called. Code Block |

In this page the fields are retrieved from register.jsp and the register function in the bean class is called to populate the database.

Few more configurations
- In the EJB Project. Under META-INF, Edit openejb-jar.xml and add the following

title | datasource dependency |

<sys:dependencies>
<sys:dependency>
<sys:groupId>console.dbpool</sys:groupId>
<sys:artifactId>jdbc%2Fuserds</sys:artifactId>

</sys:dependencies>
|
Finally the openejb-jar.xml will look like this Code Block |

Info |
---|
title | Where did the above dependencies come from?? |
---|
|
To make the datasource visible to EJB we need to add a dependency to the EJB deployment plan that is openejb-jar.xml. The above element can be obtained automatically from Geronimo Database Pool wizard. Select usage against the database pool jdbc/userds |
- In the WEB Project. Under WEB-INF, Edit geronimo-web.xml and add the following

<sys:dependencies>

- Right click the ApplicationClient Project and select properties. Select Java Build Path->Projects. Click add and add Stateless Session EJB. This is required for the compilation of the Client code.
Deploy and Run

Due to limitation with Geronimo Eclipse Plugin, you will have to export the Stateless Session EJB project and Web Application project as a jar and war respectively. |
