Sun/Oracle is providing a java-ee.jar – which contains only the Java EE APIs and does not contain any method bodies – that you can use to compile against it (from the java.net maven repository):
If you want to execute some Java EE code, you’ll need a Java EE application server, they provide an implementation of the Java EE APIs. For example, for Java EE 6, there is GlassFish.
