Building, Packaging, Deploying, and Running the Application
To build the Duke's Bank application, you must have installed the tutorial bundle as described in About the Examples. When you install the bundle, the Duke's Bank application files are located in the
<INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/bank/directory:
/bank- packaged J2EE application containing the enterprise beans and web and application clients
/provided-jars
/sql- database scripts
/src/com- component classes/sun/ebank/appclient
/sun/ebank/ejb
/sun/ebank/util
/sun/ebank/web/web- JSP pages, imagesAfter you compile the source code, the resulting files will reside in the
<INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/bank/build/directory.Setting Up the Servers
Before you can package, deploy, and run the example, you must first set up the Derby database server with customer and account data, and you must add some resources to the Application Server.
Starting the Application Server
Before you can start this tutorial, the Application Server must be running. For information on starting the Application Server, see Starting and Stopping the Application Server.
Creating the Bank Database
You create and enter data into the appropriate tables so that the enterprise beans have something to read from and write to the database.
Note: Application Server 8.2 includes a copy of the open source Derby database server. Application Server 8.0/ 8.1 includes the PointBase database server. If you are using Application Server 8.0/8.1, either follow the instructions in the J2EE Tutorial at
http://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/docs/tutorial-update6/doc/index.htmlthat works with Application Server 8.0/8.1 or upgrade to Application Server 8.2 (seehttp://java.sun.com/j2ee/1.4/download.html#appservto download).
To create and populate the database tables, follow these steps:
- In a terminal window or command prompt, go to the
<INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/bank/directory.- Execute the command
asantcreate-db_common. This asant task executes the SQL commands contained in<INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/bank/sql/create-table.sql. The SQL commands delete any existing tables, create new tables, and insert data.Capturing the Database Schema
After you create and populate the tables, you capture the structure of the tables into a schema file used to map the table data to enterprise bean fields and relationships. To capture the schema, follow these steps:
- In a terminal window or command prompt, go to the
<INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/bank/directory.- Execute the following command:
asant capture-db-schemaThis task invokes the
capture-schemacommand and saves the resulting schema file in<INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/bank/build/dukesbank.dbschema.Creating the JDBC Data Source
The Duke's Bank enterprise beans reference the database having the JNDI name
jdbc/BankDB. That JNDI name must be mapped to a JDBC data source in the Application Server. You create the data source using the Admin Console following the procedures described in Creating a Data Source. When you create the JDBC data source, name itjdbc/BankDBand map it toDerbyPool.Adding Users and Groups to the File Realm
To enable the Application Server to determine which users can access enterprise bean methods and resources in the web client, add users and groups to the server's file security realm using the Admin Console following the procedures described in Managing Users. Add the users and groups listed in Table 36-3.

Compiling the Duke's Bank Application Code
To compile the enterprise beans, application client, and web client, go to the
<INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/bank/directory of the tutorial distribution and execute the commandasantbuild.Packaging and Deploying the Duke's Bank Application
The instructions that follow for packaging and deploying Duke's Bank assume that you are familiar with the deploytool procedures for packaging enterprise beans, application clients, and web applications described in previous chapters of the tutorial. If after following these procedures you have trouble deploying or running the application, you can use the EAR provided in
<INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/bank/provided-jars/to run the example.Packaging the Enterprise Beans

Figure 36-9 Duke's Bank JNDI Names
A JNDI name is the name the Application Server uses to look up enterprise beans and resources. When you look up an enterprise bean, you supply statements similar to those shown in the following code.
try { customerControllerHome = EJBGetter.getCustomerControllerHome(); customer = customerControllerHome.create(); } catch (Exception namingException) { namingException.printStackTrace(); } public static CustomerControllerHome getCustomerControllerHome() throws NamingException { InitialContext initial = new InitialContext(); Object objref = initial.lookup( CodedNames.CUSTOMER_CONTROLLER_EJBHOME);The lookup takes place in the third line of code, in which the
getCustomerControllerHomemethod ofcom.sun.ebank.utilEJBGetteris called.EJBGetteris a utility class that retrieves a coded JNDI name fromcom.sun.ebank.util.CodedNames.In this example, the application client is looking up the coded name for the
CustomerControllerremote interface.BankAdmin(the display name for the main class of the application client) referencesejb/customerController, which is the coded name defined inCodedNamesfor theCustomerControllerremote interface.The JNDI name is stored in the J2EE application deployment descriptor, and the Application Server uses it to look up the
CustomerControllerBeanbean. In Figure 36-9 you see thatCustomerControllerBeanis mapped to the same JNDI name as isejb/customerController. It does not matter what the JNDI name is, as long as it is the same name for the remote interface lookup as you use for its corresponding bean. So, looking at the table, you can say that the application client (BankAdmin) looks up theCustomerControllerremote interface, which uses the JNDI name ofCustomerControllerBean, and the Application Server uses theCustomerControllerBeanJNDI name to find the correspondingCustomerControllerBeanobject.The other rows in the table have the mappings for the other enterprise beans. All of these beans are stored in the JAR file you added to the J2EE application during assembly. Their implementations have coded names for looking up either other enterprise beans or the database driver.
