This document assumes that you are familiar with the concepts of object-oriented programming, the Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) specification, and your own particular Java development environment.

The document also assumes that you are familiar with your particular operating system (such as Windows, UNIX, or other). The general operation of any operating system is described in the user documentation for that system, and is not repeated in this manual.
