  • 0

We would like to serve some client requests within our Java EE application server (JBoss 4.2.3). I read that the Java EE spec doesn’t allow opening a socket from an enterprise bean. But the spec suggests no alternatives.

Specifically, enterprise beans should not:

  • listen on, accept connections on, or multicast from a network socket

So the question is: What can I do to serve some binary tcp based protocols (not http) from within an application server?

Here someone suggests to implement a resource adapter. Is this the way you have to go or are there other (easier) solutions?

    Right now I implement a workaround:

    I use a standalone java application that accepts tcp calls from the client and forwards them as JNDI calls to the application server.
