Use the New Service wizard to create an EJB service. You have the option of binding service endpoints when you create a service using the wizard, or developing an abstract service and binding the service to its endpoints at a later time. An EJB service can only have one service endpoint.
Before beginning, verify that you have completed all of the setup.
To create an EJB service:
Open the New Service wizard. Select File | New | Service from the menu bar.
Select EJB Service and click Next.
Select the project that will use this service, and create a new service file. Name the file with a unique and descriptive name, and click Next.
Define the service information, and click Next.
Service Information
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
Name | Edit the file name. The wizard automatically enters a file name that is the same name as the service file in the Sybase project. NoteSybase WorkSpace does not support the use of the # character in a service file name. |
Category | Enter a new category, or select an existing category from the drop-down list. NoteIf you plan to create multiple services, it is recommended that you group services into meaningful categories. |
Description | Provide an internal description, such as an explanation of how and where this service is used. You can also add notes for other developers who may be implement this service. |
Determine whether to bind the service. Choose from the following, and click Next:
Define the endpoint now.
Select Yes, create an endpoint now.
In the EJB Endpoint page, name the endpoint to be bound to this service, and click Next.
Define the connection properties. Choose from the following:
Select Browse for a valid endpoint in the Enterprise Explorer, and click Browse. Select an EJB implementation to be your service endpoint, and click OK.
Select Specify the endpoint properties and press Enter to enable the Next button, and use the following table to define a new endpoint.
