EJBs with main () - what is it all?

Question

While doing initial EJB training with Sun, I came across a rather strange concept of a corporate application client, which has the concept of dependecy injection and the main class:

@javax.ejb.EJB
private static auctionsystem.ejb.AuctionManagerRemote auctionManager;

public static void main (String[] args)
   {
   TestClient.logger.entering (TestClient.TAG, "main");

   final String message = "hello";
   TestClient.logger.log (Level.INFO, "Sending {0}", message);
   final String reply = auctionManager.communicationTest (message);
   TestClient.logger.log (Level.INFO, "Received {0}", reply);

   TestClient.logger.exiting (TestClient.TAG, "main");
   return;
   }

I just can't find any reference information about this. How:

• How it should work.
• How to run such an application without NetBeans.
• How you build this construct without NetBeans (iE with Maven).

Yes, I use NetBeans - but I am not satisfied if I cannot perform the same operation on the command line and / or Maven.

Answer 1

Answering my own question (again)

• How should this work?

  main() , main(). (appclient).

• NetBeans?

  , appclient. :

  appclient -enableassertions -mainclass auctionapp.TestClient -jar target/AuctionApp-ejb.jar

• NetBeans (i.E. Maven)?
