Working with the Applet Client EJB Example in Eclipse

  1. Run Eclipse, in Package Explorer you should see appletclient and appletejb.
    bulletappletejb contains all the EJBs for the Applet Client EJB Example.  It uses one source folder src, has two packages org.jboss.docs.appletclient.ejb and org.jboss.docs.appletclient.interfaces which contain the EJB source.  The output is directed to appletejb/appletclient.ear/appletclientejb.jar which allows hot editing of the EJBs  without having to deploy them.
    bulletappletclient contains the Applet  source.  It uses the project as the source folder, has one package org.jboss.docs.appletclient.applet which contains the Applet client source and an ant file build.xml to build the ear folder, copy the jars to the appletejb project and sign them.
  2. Click JBoss, Start JBoss (if not already started) and wait for:

    10:33:48,077 INFO [Server] JBoss (MX MicroKernel) [3.0.1RC1 Date:200206291622] Started in 0m:12s:125ms

    in the Console output.  This means JBoss is up and running.
  3. Open a web Browser and go to http://localhost:8080/appletclient, you should see the Applet load.  Click on Get server message.
