Attributes Summary
name : EString The value of the role-name element must be the String used as the parameter to the EJBContext.isCallerInRole(String roleName) method or the HttpServletRequest.isUserInRole(String role) method.
description : EString @version J2EE1.4 deprecated, becomes descriptions The description element is used by the ejb-jar file producer to provide text describing the parent element. The description element should include any information that the ejb-jar file producer wants to provide to the consumer of the ejb-jar file (i.e. to the Deployer). Typically, the tools used by the ejb-jar file consumer will display the description when processing the parent element.
