Make the JPA entities available to the EJB project
To make the JPA entities available to the EJBs, we add the RAD75JPA project to the RAD75EJBEAR enterprise application and create a dependency.
| Right-click the RAD75EJBEAR project and select Java EE Æ Generate Deployment Descriptor Stub. |
|
| A META-INF folder with an application.xml file is created in the project. |
|
| Open the application.xml file. |
|
| In the editor, select the Design tab, and you can see the EJB module as part of the EAR (Figure | 4-10). Close the editor. |
