Creating WebLogic entity beans in JBuilder
JBuilders EJB designer has support for WebLogic-specific features. The entity bean
inspector includes options such as optimistic concurrency and field groups. There is a
WebLogic version of the Table Map Editor. When creating relationships between entity
beans, there are WebLogic versions of the relationship inspector and a special
WebLogic RDBMS Relation Editor. For information about using these tools, see
Adding WebLogic table references and Specifying a WebLogic 7.x 8.x relationship
in Developing Applications with Enterprise JavaBeans.
Using the DD Editor
The DD Editor has several WebLogic-specific pages for information that applies only to
WebLogic servers. For information about using the DD Editor to edit J2EE modules,
see Chapter 11, Editing J2EE deployment descriptors. Whenever a WebLogic-
specific page is displayed in the DD Editor, you can press F1 for help on that particular
page. Youll also find it convenient to have a copy of your servers documentation
handy to look up the type of information your server requires in the deployment
descriptors.
Compiling
To set APPC or EJBC options for compiling your WebLogic beans, right-click the EJB
