Package javax.ejb
Annotation Interface Init
Designates a method of a session bean that corresponds to a
create<METHOD>
method of an adapted home or
local home interface (an interface that adapts an EJB 2.1 or earlier
EJBHome or EJBLocalHome client view respectively).
The result type of such an Init
method is required
to be void
, and its parameter types must be exactly the same as
those of the referenced create<METHOD>
method(s).
An Init
method is only required to be specified for
stateful session beans that provide a RemoteHome
or
LocalHome
interface.
The name of the adapted create<METHOD>
method of the home or local home interface must be specified if the
adapted interface has more than one
create<METHOD>
method and the method
signatures are not the same.

value
String valueThe name of the correspondingcreate<METHOD>
method of the adapted home or local home interface. This value is used to disambiguate the case where there are multiplecreate<METHOD>
methods on an adapted home and/or local home interface. If there are multiplecreate<METHOD>
methods on the adapted interface(s) and no value is specified, thecreate<METHOD>
matching is based on signature only.Note that this value is not required to be specified if there is only a single
create<METHOD>
method even if the name of the method to which theInit
annotation is applied does not match that of thecreate<METHOD>
method.- Default:
- ""
