EJB is a specification for J2EE server

[gk]

"EJB is a specification for J2EE server, not a product"

is this true ?

where can i see the specs ?

can you please provide the link for it ?


who implements this spec ? who are ther vedors implemented this spec ?

I'm willing to guess all the info you need is at http://java.sun.com

Have fun.

how about giving an answer like google.com ?

Yes.

where can i see the specs ?

On Sun's Java site.

can you please provide the link for it ?
http://java.sun.com/products/ejb/docs.html

The application server vendors, Sun, JBoss, BEA, IBM, the ASF.... plenty
more.

that was a nice answer.

ok..so these application server guys implements this ejb specs ......so
actually they make some java classes which conforms those specification
and bundles those java classes into a JAR file and that JAR file name
is J2EE.JAR and then they put this J2EE.JAR into their application
server ...... all those vendors do the same above task.


is this correct ?

and so thats why there are...
j2ee.jar (//from sun application server)
j2ee.jar (//ibm websphere server)
j2ee.jar (//BEA weblogic server)
j2ee.jar (//Jboss server)

is this correct ?

tell me one thing , cant we download the JAR file seperately from the
website ? does they spec prohibits that you cant download the J2EE.jar
unless you download the app server ?

is there any rule , license , copyright or some restriction there ?
does all the vendors obeys that ?

He actually gave you a good answer, but this is slightly more specific.
http://java.sun.com/javaee/ will get you links to all the information you
need. J2EE is not a small subject, and you will need to do some research.
This is a good place to start.

It is a little more complicated.

A J2EE server is a container. The container provides certain services,
such as transaction management, security, persistence, logging etc.

The classes that you would find in the 'j2ee.jar' are classes that
provide the 'container contract'. That is, the mechanism by which the
application server provides these services to your application. The
application server knows about j2ee.jar and your application knows about
j2ee.jar, this is the mechanism by which the application server and your
deployed components interact.

To be honest, what you are asking is a massive question and takes some
time (and entire books) to cover completely. I would suggest that if you
have an interest in the subject, you go through the sun J2EE tutorial or
pick up a J2EE book. Most will explain it far better than I do

It's a good also also, but java.sun.com is a great first place to look.
