You start reverse engineering EJB from . Select one of the following Java formats from the Selection page in order to select the Reverse Engineer Deployment Descriptor check box from the Options page:
For more information on the Java formats, see Reverse Engineering Java Code.
The reverse engineering feature looks for a deployment descriptor file located inside the .JAR, or the class or Java directories and creates the appropriate components.
The deployment descriptor describes the components of the .JAR file, thus, for each described component, the reverse feature creates a component in the package specified by its bean class. If the Bean class is missing, the components are not reversed.
For more information on the deployment descriptor, see Using the EJB deployment descriptor.
