Interface EJBMetaData

public interface EJBMetaData

The EJBMetaData interface allows a client to obtain the enterprise Bean's meta-data information.

The meta-data is intended for development tools used for building applications that use deployed enterprise Beans, and for clients using a scripting language to access the enterprise Bean.

Note that the EJBMetaData is not a remote interface. The class that implements this interface (this class is typically generated by container tools) must be serializable, and must be a valid RMI/IDL value type.

Method Summary
`EJBHome`	`getEJBHome()` Obtain the remote home interface of the enterprise Bean.
`Class`	`getHomeInterfaceClass()` Obtain the Class object for the enterprise Bean's remote home interface.
`Class`	`getPrimaryKeyClass()` Obtain the Class object for the enterprise Bean's primary key class.
`Class`	`getRemoteInterfaceClass()` Obtain the Class object for the enterprise Bean's remote interface.
`boolean`	`isSession()` Test if the enterprise Bean's type is "session".
`boolean`	`isStatelessSession()` Test if the enterprise Bean's type is "stateless session".
