jboss modular embeddable server?

Hi guys! What is jboss modular embeddable server? Is it the AS that can usually be downloaded here?

http://labs.jboss.com/portal/jbossas/download

The book talks about it in Chapter 2, Installing the EJB container but I can't seem to find the configuration files mentioned there.

Quote:

default.persistence.properties - NOT FOUND
ejb3-interceptors-aop.xml - NOT FOUND
embedded-jboss-beans.xml - NOT FOUND
jndi.properties - FOUND

And there are just a lot of libs(jars) that came with the jboss AS so the instruction to copy all the jars that came with the AS to my project workdir is just so vague...

Just download the examples for the book: http://caveatemptor.hibernate.org

Greetings!

I am currently working in this part of the book and unfortunately after unzipping the downloaded archive from jBoss it seems that the writings on the book says "copy all required libraries that comes with the server", can somebody enumerate or point me to the right required libraries that the book are saying, and as well as the configuration files it is referring at...

And also it seems that I could not find this files;
default.persistence.properties,
ejb3-interceptors-aop.xml
embedded-jboss-beans.xml

Thanks in advance!

Since the book has been released, the "JBoss embeddable EJB3 server" as described and used in the book has been deprecated. What is now available, "Embeddable JBoss application server", is not the same (although it looks similar at first).

You have two choices:

1. Follow the book to the letter and download the old server, it is included in the CaveatEmptor/HelloWorld download (with all libs etc.) on http://caveatemptor.hibernate.org

2. Drop that section of the book after reading it once and get started with the examples that come with the newer embeddable JBoss AS.

Thanks for the reply!

Where could I found the examples that came with the newer embeddable JBoss AS? Or If I follow the book what version of JBoss should I use?

I've download the current GA release from JBoss "jboss-4.0.5.GA".

Thanks again...

Here are the steps:

1. Type http://caveatemptor.hibernate.org/ into your browser.

2. Click on the "Getting Started - Hello World" download link.

3. Unzip that archive.

4. Open a command line (DOS prompt on windows or Cygwin shell) and change into the unzipped directory, and then into the helloworld-ejb3 directory.

5. Read the README.txt file.

6. Follow the instructions in the README.txt file step by step.

This is the same code and "embeddable" server as described in the book.

Do not download JBoss Application Server 4.0.5 or (or 4.2 for that matter) unless you want a full (not embedded) Java EE/J2EE application server. This is neither described nor necessary for the examples in the book.

If you want to try the newer "embeddable" server, which is not described in the book either, it comes with examples etc. and is downloadable here:

I’ am trying to run the sample from Getting Started - Hello World" under helloworld-ejb3 but unfortunately an error shows up.

Hoping for your help. Thank you very much in advance!

Go into helloworld-ejb3/src/java/hello/HelloWorld.java and switch from the fast deploy to the slow deploy mechanism. Simply comment out this code:

Code:

        // Deploy all EJBs found on classpath (fast, scans only build directory)
        // This is a relative location, matching the substring end of one of java.class.path locations!
        // Print out System.getProperty("java.class.path") to understand this...
        EJB3StandaloneBootstrap.scanClasspath("helloworld-ejb3/build".replace("/", File.separator));

And uncomment this code:

Code:

        // Deploy all EJBs found on classpath (slow, scans all)
        //EJB3StandaloneBootstrap.scanClasspath();

Also make sure you have the latest version, there was a bug in an older release. If you do not have the replace(File.separator) in the above block, you have an older version.

I have successfully run.
It but every time I run the program the same row where affected by the changes.

These threads also help me in resolving the problem http://forum.hibernate.org/viewtopic.ph ... e58752bf6f

Thought I am quite confuse that is it really has some Microsoft Windows issue.

Cheers!

Windows has a different path separator, "\", than other operating systems, which mostly use "/". The old release of Hello World had a hardcoded "/" in the location of the build output. The new release finds out the system path separator automatically.
