Jboss-ejb-client.xml

Internal

• WildFly Deployment Descriptors

Overview

jboss-ejb-client.xml is a JBoss-specific deployment descriptor to be included within artifacts deployed on JBoss server instances, which contains configuration that will be used to setup an EJB client context for that deployment. For more details about the EJB client context see:

EJB Client Context

jboss-ejb-client.xml is a deployment descriptor to be included with server deployment artifacts. It is usually part of WAR deployments that want to call into remote EJBs. Equivalent functionality for standalone EJB clients is provided by the jboss-ejb-client.properties configuration file.

Location

The deployment descriptor must be present in the META-INF directory of the deployment artifact.

Example

<jboss-ejb-client xmlns:xsi="urn:jboss:ejb-client:1.2" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="jboss-ejb-client_1_2.xsd">
  <client-context>
    <ejb-receivers>
      <remoting-ejb-receiver outbound-connection-ref="remote-ejb-connection-1"/>
      <remoting-ejb-receiver outbound-connection-ref="remote-ejb-connection-2"/>
    </ejb-receivers>
  </client-context>
</jboss-ejb-client>

Required Server Configuration

The above example will only work if the server instance to be deployed into has its remoting subsystem configured accordingly. The required configuration is described here:
