Document Type Definitions (DTDs)
Note
There are two deployment descriptors for each J2EE compliant application client
module. One is a J2EE standard deployment descriptor, and the other is a vendor
specific file.
The XML grammar for a J2EE application client deployment descriptor is defined in the
J2EE application-client Document Type Definition (DTD). The root element of the
deployment descriptor for an application client is the application-client.
The content of XML elements are generally case sensitive. All valid application client
deployment descriptors must contain the following DOCTYPE declaration:
The vendor-specific deployment descriptor for an application client must contain the
following DOCTYPE declaration:
The contents of the Borland-specific application client DTD are:
Here ejb-ref-name and res-ref-names are the names of the corresponding elements in
the J2EE XML file, and jndi-name is the absolute JNDI name with which the object is
deployed in JNDI.
Example XML using the DTD
As discussed, every application client needs a pair of XML files; a standard file and a
vendor-specific file.
Example of a standard file:
SimpleSort
J2EE AppContainer spec compliant Sort client
