Enterprise JavaBeans (3rd Edition)

This book explains and demonstrates the fundamentals of the Enterprise JavaBeans 2.0 and 1.1 architectures. Although EJB makes distributed computing much simpler, it is still a complex technology that requires a great deal of time and study to master. This book provides a straightforward, no-nonsense explanation of the underlying technology, Java classes and interfaces, component model, and runtime behavior of Enterprise JavaBeans. It includes material that is backward-compatible with EJB 1.1 and provides special notes and chapters when there are significant differences between 1.1 and 2.0.
