Naming Conventions for Enterprise Beans
Because enterprise beans are composed of multiple parts, it's useful to follow a naming convention for your applications. Table 23-2 summarizes the conventions for the example beans in this tutorial.
| Item | Syntax | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Enterprise bean name (DD[a]) | <name>Bean | AccountBean |
| EJB JAR display name (DD) | <name>JAR | AccountJAR |
| Enterprise bean class | <name>Bean | AccountBean |
| Home interface | <name>Home | AccountHome |
| Remote interface | <name> | Account |
| Local home interface | <name>LocalHome | AccountLocalHome |
| Local interface | <name>Local | AccountLocal |
| Abstract schema (DD) | <name> | Account |
[a] DD means that the item is an element in the bean's deployment descriptor.
