Building, Deploying, and Running the consumeremoteModules Using NetBeans IDE

To package the modules using NetBeans IDE, perform these steps:

1. In NetBeans IDE, choose Open Project from the File menu.

2. In the Open Project dialog, navigate to tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/jms/consumeremote/.

3. Select the earthmdb folder.

4. Select the Open as Main Project check box.

5. Click Open Project.

6. Right-click the earthmdb project and choose Build.

   This command creates a JAR file that contains the bean class file and the sun-ejb-jar.xml deployment descriptor file.

7. Choose Open Project from the File menu.

8. Select the jupiterclient folder.

9. Select the Open as Main Project check box.

10. Click Open Project.

11. Right-click the jupiterclient project and choose Build.

    This target creates a JAR file that contains the client class file and a manifest file.

To deploy the earthmdb module and run the application client, perform these steps:

1. Right-click the earthmdb project and choose Set as Main Project.

2. Right-click the earthmdb project and choose Undeploy and Deploy.

3. Copy the jupiterclient module to the remote system (jupiter):

   1. In a terminal window, change to the directory tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/jms/consumeremote/jupiterclient/dist/.

   2. Type a command like the following:

      cp jupiterclient.jar F:/

      That is, copy the client JAR file to a location on the remote filesystem.

4. Go to the directory on the remote system where you copied the client JAR file.

5. Use the following command:

   appclient -client jupiterclient.jar

On jupiter, the output of the appclient command looks like this:

Sending message: This is message 1
Sending message: This is message 2
Sending message: This is message 3

On earth, the output in the server log looks something like this (wrapped in logging information):

MESSAGE BEAN: Message received: This is message 1
MESSAGE BEAN: Message received: This is message 2
MESSAGE BEAN: Message received: This is message 3

Undeploy the message-driven bean after you finish running the client. To undeploy the earthmdb module, perform these steps:

1. Click the Services tab.

2. Expand the Servers node.

3. Expand the Sun Java System Application Server node.

4. Expand the Applications node.

5. Expand the EJB Modules node.

6. Right-click earthmdb and choose Undeploy.

To remove the generated files, follow these steps:

1. Right-click the earthmdb project and choose Clean.

2. In the command line window from which you copied the client JAR file, go to a directory other than the jupiterclient/dist directory.

3. Right-click the jupiterclient project and choose Clean.

You can also delete the jupiterclient.jar file from the remote filesystem.
