Choices C and D are correct. When using screen scrapers, any changes to the legacy user interface will also affect the new GUI. Also screen scraping is the best alternative only if the existing
Undefined Primary Keys refers to? A Refers to Entity Beans that do not use Primary KeysB Primary Keys that are defined during developmentC Primary Keys that remain undefined until the bean is deployedD
Choice C is correct. One problem with container-managed persistence in EJB 1.0 was that the bean developer had to define the primary key during development. This forced the developer to make
Which of the following are valid life cycle states for a Stateless Session Bean? A Does not ExistB Pooled StateC Method Ready PoolD Passive
Choices A and C are correct. The two valid states in a Stateless Session Bean's life cycle are 'Does Not Exist' and 'Method Ready Pool.' When Beans are not instantiated
Both CMT and BMT may be used with Entity and Session Beans. True or False? A TrueB False
Choice B is correct With EJB1.1 only Session Beans with equal to 'Bean' can have bean-managed transactions. Entity Beans are not allowed to be BMT beans. Hence choice
A session bean called SomeBean has a method called someMethod(), which calls someOtherMethod (same bean) followed by someOtherBeanMethod() of SomeOtherBean. SomeOtherBean is an Entity Bean with CMT. Which of the following is true? A SomeOtherBean has no control on the transaction since it is a CMT bean.B SomeOtherBean has full access
Choice C is correct. Only BMT beans have access to the User-Transaction from the EJBContext. The EJBContext provides the methods setRollbackOnly() and getRollbackOnly(), to provide CMT beans
