Running the ejbdeploy command

Running the ejbdeploy command to generate deployment code is a required step in deploying enterprise beans. As part of the generation of deployment code, one or more SQLJ customization profiles will be created. You can then run the DB2 SQLJ profile customizer against the customization profiles to produce static SQL in the database.

Follow these steps:

1. Open a command prompt.

2. Run the ejbdeploy command:
   1. Specify that you want to use SQLJ instead of JDBC for data access: Use the -sqlj option.

   2. Specify the SQLJ translator ZIP file and its location: Use the class path option (-cp). The translator generates the customization profiles for the EJB JAR files.

For example: ejbdeploy in.ear tmp out.ear -sqlj -cp "C:\PROGRA~1\IBM\SQLLIB\java\sqlj.zip;"

This generates a EAR file called out.ear and an Ant script called out.ear.xml.

There will be at least one customization profile for each EJB JAR file. It is located in one of the subdirectories below the websphere_deploy directory, for example FS_TopDown1_SJProfile0.ser.

Note: If you used the workbench to create the mapping and had specified in the mapping editor to use SQLJ, you do not need to pass the -sqlj option to the ejbdeploy command.
