Call bean of project A from servlet of project B

I have a Java EE server that calls a bean in project A from a Servlet in project B. Both projects are in the same "cell" (cluster). I would like to go through a load balancer as well. I do not want to use Message Driven Beans or Web Services.

Is there any other way to do this, and how can would that be implemented?

Solution

  • Actually after some time I found the solution:

    Hashtable env = new Hashtable();
env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"com.ibm.websphere.naming
.WsnInitialContextFactory");
env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,"corbaloc::boris:9811,:natasha
:9812");
Context ctx = new InitialContext(env);
TestEJBHome home = (TestEJBHome)
PortableRemoteObject.narrow(ctx.lookup("ejb/ejbs/TestEJBHome"),
    TestEJBHome.class);
TestEJB bean = home.create();
