Class	Description
AccessLocalException	An AccessLocalException is thrown to indicate that the caller does not have permission to call the method.

ActivationConfigProperty	Used to provide information to the deployer about the configuration of a message driven bean in its operational environment.
AfterBegin	Designate a stateful session bean method to receive the after begin session synchronization callback.
AfterCompletion	Designate a stateful session bean method to receive the after completion session synchronization callback.

Asynchronous	Used to mark a session bean method as an asynchronous method or to designate all business methods of a session bean class as asynchronous.

ConcurrencyManagementType	Used to specify the value of the ConcurrencyManagement annotation for a singleton session bean.
ConcurrentAccessException	A ConcurrentAccessException indicates that the client has attempted an invocation on a stateful session bean or singleton bean while another invocation is in progress and such concurrent access is not allowed.
ConcurrentAccessTimeoutException	This exception indicates that an attempt to concurrently access a stateful session or singleton bean method resulted in a timeout.
CreateException	The CreateException exception must be included in the throws clauses of all create methods defined in an enterprise bean's home or local home interface.
DependsOn	Used to express an initialization dependency between singleton components.
EJB	Indicates a dependency on the local, no-interface, or remote view of an Enterprise JavaBean.
EJBAccessException	This exception indicates that client access to a business method was denied.
EJBContext	The EJBContext interface provides an instance with access to the container-provided runtime context of an enterprise bean instance.
EJBException	The EJBException is thrown to report that the invoked business method or callback method could not be completed because of an unexpected error (e.g.
EJBHome	The EJBHome interface must be extended by all enterprise beans' remote home interfaces.
EJBLocalHome	The EJBLocalHome interface must be extended by all enterprise beans' local home interfaces.
EJBLocalObject	The EJBLocalObject interface must be extended by all enterprise beans' local interfaces.
EJBMetaData	The EJBMetaData interface allows a client to obtain the enterprise bean's meta-data information.
EJBObject	The EJBObject interface is extended by all enterprise beans' remote interfaces.
EJBs	Declares multiple EJB annotations.
EJBTransactionRequiredException	This exception indicates that a request carried a null transaction context, but the target object requires an active transaction.
EJBTransactionRolledbackException	This exception is thrown to a remote client to indicate that the transaction associated with processing of the request has been rolled back, or marked to roll back.
EnterpriseBean	The EnterpriseBean interface is a common superinterface for the SessionBean, EntityBean and MessageDrivenBean interfaces.
Handle	The Handle interface is implemented by all EJB object handles.
HomeHandle	The HomeHandle interface is implemented by all home object handles.
IllegalLoopbackException	This exception indicates that an attempt was made to perform an illegal loopback invocation.
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).
Local	Declares the local business interface(s) for a session bean.
LocalBean	Designates that a session bean exposes a no-interface view.
LocalHome	Declares the local home or adapted local home interface for a session bean.
Lock	Declares a concurrency lock for a singleton session bean with container managed concurrency.
LockType	Concurrency lock type for singleton beans with container-managed concurrency.
MessageDriven	Component-defining annotation for a message driven bean.
MessageDrivenBean	The MessageDrivenBean interface defines methods that the EJB container uses to notify a message driven bean instance of the instance's life cycle events.
MessageDrivenContext	The MessageDrivenContext interface provides access to the runtime message-driven context that the container provides for a message-driven bean instance.
NoMoreTimeoutsException	This exception indicates that a calendar-based timer will not result in any more timeouts.
NoSuchEJBException	A NoSuchEJBException is thrown if an attempt is made to invoke a business method on a stateful session or singleton object that no longer exists.
NoSuchObjectLocalException	A NoSuchObjectLocalException is thrown if an attempt is made to invoke a method on a local object (local EJB object or timer) that no longer exists.
PostActivate	Designates a method to receive a callback after a stateful session bean has been activated.
PrePassivate	Designates a method to receive a callback before a stateful session bean is passivated.
Remote	Declares the remote business interface(s) for a session bean.
RemoteHome	Declares the remote home interface or adapted remote home interface for a session bean.
Remove	Applied to a business method of a stateful session bean class to indicate to the container that the stateful session bean is to be removed by the container after completion of the method.
RemoveException	The RemoveException is thrown at an attempt to remove an EJB object or local EJB object when the enterprise bean or the container does not allow the EJB object to be removed.
Schedule	Schedule a timer for automatic creation with a timeout schedule based on a cron-like time expression.
ScheduleExpression	A calendar-based timeout expression for an enterprise bean timer.
Schedules	Applied to a timer callback method to schedule multiple calendar-based timers for the method.
SessionBean	The SessionBean interface defines methods that the EJB container uses to notify a session bean instance of the instance's life cycle events.
SessionContext	The SessionContext interface provides access to the runtime session context that the container provides for a session bean instance.
SessionSynchronization	The SessionSynchronization interface allows a stateful session bean instance to be notified by its container of transaction boundaries.
Singleton	Component-defining annotation for a singleton session bean.
Startup	Mark a singleton bean for eager initialization during the application startup sequence.
Stateful	Component-defining annotation for a stateful session bean.
StatefulTimeout	Specifies the amount of time a stateful session bean can be idle (not receive any client invocations) before it is eligible for removal by the container.
Stateless	Component-defining annotation for a stateless session bean.
TimedObject	The TimedObject interface contains a callback method that is used to deliver timer expiration notifications.
Timeout	Designates a method on a stateless session bean class, a singleton session bean class, a message driven bean class, or an EJB 2.x entity bean class that should receive EJB timer expirations for that bean.
Timer	The Timer interface contains information about a timer that was created through the EJB Timer Service.
TimerConfig	TimerConfig is used to specify additional timer configuration settings during timer creation.
TimerHandle	The TimerHandle interface allows the bean provider to obtain a serializable timer handle that may be persisted.
TimerService	The TimerService interface provides enterprise bean components with access to the container-provided Timer Service.
TransactionAttribute	The TransactionAttribute annotation specifies whether the container is to invoke a business method within a transaction context.
TransactionAttributeType	The enum TransactionAttributeType is used with the TransactionAttribute annotation to specify whether the methods of a session bean or message driven bean are called with a valid transaction context.
TransactionManagement	Specifies whether a session bean or message driven bean has container managed transactions or bean managed transactions.
TransactionManagementType	The enum TransactionManagementType is used with the TransactionManagement annotation to specify whether container-managed or bean-managed transaction management is used.
TransactionRequiredLocalException	This exception is thrown to a local client to indicate that a request carried a null transaction context, but the target object requires an active transaction.
TransactionRolledbackLocalException	This exception is thrown to a local client to indicate that the transaction associated with processing of the request has been rolled back, or marked to roll back.
