8.3 J2EEC — Utility for Creating Stubs and Ties for a JAX-RPC Web Service

8.3.1 Availability

J2EE 1.4 reference implementation.

8.3.2 Synopsis

j2eec [-keep | -keepgenerated ] [-o output] module

8.3.3 Description

j2eec is a command-line utility that is part of the J2EE reference implementation. It accepts a deployable J2EE module and creates a JAR file containing some or all of the following:

The newly created JAR file can be used as follows:

8.3.4 Options

The behavior of the j2eec command is determined primarily by the deployment descriptors provided in the J2EE module supplied on its command line, which may be an EJB JAR file, a web archive, a J2EE client application archive, or an EAR file containing any combination of the other module types. In the latter case, the generated file includes all of the stubs, ties, and other information required for each of the modules that it contains. The following command-line options are also available:

-keep
-keepgenerated

Synonymous options that cause the Java source files for the stubs and ties and other files generated by j2eec to be retained. By default, these files are deleted. Temporary files are placed in a system-dependent location. For Windows 2000 and Windows XP, for example, you'll find these files in a directory beneath %HOME%\Local Settings\Temp, where %HOME% represents your home directory. The actual location is displayed on standard output when the command is executed.

-o filename

Specifies the name of the JAR file to which j2eec should write its output. If this argument is not supplied, output is written to a file called generated.jar in the caller's working directory.
