<application-client> | Root element |
The application-client element is the root element of an application client deployment descriptor. The application client deployment descriptor describes the EJB components and external resources referenced by the application client.
Element's model:
<application-client>'s children Name Cardinality callback-handler One or none description One or none display-name Only one ejb-ref Any number env-entry Any number icon One or none resource-env-ref Any number resource-ref Any number
<application-client>'s attributes Name Values Default id Match the ID rules.
(icon?, display-name, description?, env-entry*, ejb-ref*, resource-ref*, resource-env-ref*, callback-handler?)
<callback-handler> | Child of application-client |
The callback-handler element names a class provided by the application. The class must have a no args constructor and must implement the javax.security.auth.callback.CallbackHandler interface. The class will be instantiated by the application client container and used by the container to collect authentication information from the user.
Used in: application-client
<callback-handler>'s attributes Name Values Default id Match the ID rules.
<description> | Child of ejb-ref, application-client, env-entry, resource-ref, resource-env-ref |
The description element is used to provide text describing the parent element. The description element should include any information that the application client jar file producer wants to provide to the consumer of the application client jar file (i.e., to the Deployer). Typically, the tools used by the application client jar file consumer will display the description when processing the parent element that contains the description.
Used in: application-client, ejb-ref, env-entry, resource-env-ref, resource-ref
<description>'s attributes Name Values Default id Match the ID rules.
<display-name> | Child of application-client |
The display-name element contains a short name that is intended to be displayed by tools. The display name need not be unique.

<ejb-link> | Child of ejb-ref |
The ejb-link element is used in the ejb-ref element to specify that an EJB reference is linked to an enterprise bean.

The path name is relative to the jar file containing the application client that is referencing the enterprise bean. This allows multiple enterprise beans with the same ejb-name to be uniquely identified.
Used in: ejb-ref
Examples:
<ejb-link>EmployeeRecord</ejb-link>
<ejb-link>../products/product.jar#ProductEJB</ejb-link>

The ID mechanism is to allow tools that produce additional deployment information (i.e., information beyond the standard deployment descriptor information) to store the non-standard information in a separate file, and easily refer from these tool-specific files to the information in the standard deployment descriptor.
Tools are not allowed to add the non-standard information into the standard deployment descriptor.
