EJB的工作原理

RMI的工作原理，因为EJB毕竟是基于RMI的嘛。RMI的本质就是实现在不同JVM之间的调用，工作原理图如下:

它的实现方法就是在两个JVM中各开一个Stub和Skeleton，二者通过socket通信来实现参数和返回值的传递。

 

1. 定义一个Person的接口，其中有两个business method, getAge() 和getName()

 

package cn.com.yy.ejb;

public interface Person {
 public String getName() throws Throwable;
 public int getAge() throws Throwable;
}

 

2、2. Person的实现PersonServer类
package cn.com.yy.ejb;

public class PersonService implements Person {
 private String name;
 private int age;
 public PersonService(String sName,int sAge){
  name = sName;
  age = sAge;
 }
 @Override
 public String getName() throws Throwable {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub
  return name;
 }
 @Override
 public int getAge() throws Throwable {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub
  return age;
 }
}

 

现在要在Client机器上调用getAge()和getName()这两个business method，那么就得编写相应的Stub(Client端)和Skeleton(Server端)程序。

 

3、Stub的实现：

package cn.com.yy.ejb;

import java.io.ObjectInputStream;
import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;
import java.net.Socket;

public class Person_Stub implements Person {
 Socket socket = null;
 public Person_Stub() throws Throwable{
  //connect to skeleton
  socket = new Socket("yy",9000);
 }
 @Override
 public String getName() throws Throwable {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub
  ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(socket.getOutputStream());
  out.writeObject("getName");
  out.flush();
  ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(socket.getInputStream());
  return (String)in.readObject();
 }
 @Override
 public int getAge() throws Throwable {
  // TODO Auto-generated method stub
  ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(socket.getOutputStream());
  out.writeObject("getAge");
  out.flush();
  ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(socket.getInputStream());
  return in.readInt();
 }
}
Person_Stub和PersonServer一样，都implements Person。它们都实现了getAge()和getName()两个business method，不同的是PersonServer是真的实现，Person_Stub是建立socket连接，并向Skeleton发请求，然后通过 Skeleton调用PersonServer的方法，最后接收返回的结果。

 

4、Skeleton的实现

package cn.com.yy.ejb;

import java.io.ObjectInputStream;
import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;
import java.net.ServerSocket;
import java.net.Socket;

public class Person_Skeleton extends Thread {
 PersonService myService;
 public Person_Skeleton(PersonService personService){
  myService = personService;
 }
 public void run(){
  try{
   // new socket at port 9000 
   ServerSocket server = new ServerSocket(9000);
   // accept stub's request 
   Socket socket = server.accept();
   while(socket != null){
    // get stub's request 
    ObjectInputStream inStream = new ObjectInputStream(socket.getInputStream()); 
    String methodName = (String)inStream.readObject();
    // check method name 
    if(methodName.equals("getName")){
     // execute object server's business method 
     String name = myService.getName();
     ObjectOutputStream outStream = new ObjectOutputStream(socket.getOutputStream());
     // return result to stub 
     outStream.writeObject(name);
     outStream.flush();
    }
    // check method name 
    if(methodName.equals("getAge")){
     // execute object server's business method 
     int age = myService.getAge();
     ObjectOutputStream outStream = new ObjectOutputStream(socket.getOutputStream());
     // return result to stub 
     outStream.writeInt(age);
     outStream.flush();
    }
   }
  }catch(Throwable e){
   e.printStackTrace();
   System.exit(0);
  }finally{}
 }
}

5、 最后一个，Client的实现

package cn.com.yy.ejb;

public class PersonClient {
 public static void main(String args []) {
  try{
   Person person = new Person_Stub();
   int age = person.getAge();
   String name = person.getName();
   System.out.println(name + " is " + age + " years old"); 
  }catch(Throwable t){
   t.printStackTrace();
  }
 }
}
Client的本质是，它要知道Person接口的定义，并实例一个Person_Stub，通过Stub来调用business method，至于Stub怎么去和Server沟通，Client就不用管了。
