6.3.5. Add Session Beans to a Project in JBoss Developer Studio
JBoss Developer Studio has several wizards that can be used to quickly create enterprise bean classes. The following procedure shows how to use the JBoss Developer Studio wizards to add a session bean to a project.
Prerequisites:
- You have a EJB or Dynamic Web Project in JBoss Developer Studio to which you want to add one or more session beans.
Procedure 6.5. Add Session Beans to a Project in JBoss Developer Studio

Open the project in JBoss Developer Studio.Open the "Create EJB 3.x Session Bean" wizard
To open the Create EJB 3.x Session Bean wizard, navigate to the File menu, select New, and then Session Bean (EJB 3.x).Figure 6.7. Create EJB 3.x Session Bean wizard
Specify class information
Supply the following details:- ProjectVerify the correct project is selected.
- Source folderThis is the folder that the Java source files will be created in. This should not usually need to be changed.
- PackageSpecify the package that the class belongs to.
- Class nameSpecify the name of the class that will be the session bean.
- SuperclassThe session bean class can inherit from a super class. Specify that here if your session has a super class.
- State typeSpecify the state type of the session bean: stateless, stateful, or singleton.
- Business InterfacesBy default the No-interface box is checked so no interfaces will be created. Check the boxes for the interfaces you wish to define and adjust the names if necessary.Remember that enterprise beans in a web archive (WAR) only support EJB 3.1 Lite and this does not include remote business interfaces.
