Attributes Summary
transactionAttribute : TransactionAttributeType	The trans-attribute element specifies how the container must manage the transaction boundaries when delegating a method invocation to an enterprise bean's business 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.
