This task sets the internationalization type for an enterprise
bean within an Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) module.
Before you begin
This topic assumes that you have an assembly tool such as Rational® Application Developer.
For
information about assembly, refer to the documentation for your assembly tool.
The steps in this topic refer to Rational Application Developer.
This
topic assumes that you have started the assembly tool, configured the assembly
tool for work on Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE)
modules, and created or imported an EJB project.
About this task
Container-managed internationalization (CMI) is the default type;
entity beans cannot be set to application-managed internationalization (AMI).
Use CMI also for stateless session beans that are enabled for Web services.
Procedure
- In the Java EE perspective, open the EJB project for which you
want to set the internationalization type.
- Double-click EJB Projects.
- Double-click the name of the EJB project to see its contents.
- Double-click the deployment descriptor object.
The EJB Deployment Descriptor panel is displayed.
- In the EJB Deployment Descriptor panel, click the Internationalization
tab. Any enterprise beans that are already configured for AMI
are displayed in the Internationalization type list.
- To set the internationalization type for any other enterprise beans
to AMI, click Add following the Internationalization type list.
The Internationalization Type wizard opens. Only message-driven or session
beans can be selected.
- Select the beans that you want to set and click Finish to
exit the wizard.
- From the menu bar, click File > Save.
Results
The internationalization type is assigned to the bean.
What to do next
For beans that use container-managed internationalization, you can
then set container-managed internationalization attributes. For more information,
see "Configuring container internationalization for enterprise beans."
