EJB Remote Lookup

The following Example shows a remote Lookup for the Imixs EntityService Bean in a java client application

        EntityServiceRemote     entityService;
        try {
                
                String ejbName="ejb/MyImixsEntityServiceBean";
                
                InitialContext ic = new InitialContext();
                entityService = (EntityServiceRemote) ic.lookup(ejbName);

        } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                entityService = null;
        }

the Remote JNDI Name is defined by the remote application in the sun-ejb-jar.xml file.
