Definition
|
| J2EE EJB Container Host JVM |
J2SE(s) JVM(s) to host the EJB Container(s). This a Java 2 Virtual
Machine that has passed the Java 2 Compatibility test suite on the EJB
Container Host OS(s). The JVM is identified by a precise version number.
i.e. JDK 1.2.1 or JDK 1.2.2. Maintenance releases of a JVM represent distinct
versions of a J2EE EJB Container Host JVM. |
| J2EE EJB Container Host Software. |
This is the software that is required in addition to the virtual machine
to support the execution of the J2EE EJB Container. At a minimum,
the EJB container host software consists of a specific version of an operating
system. However, it may also consist of additional things such as a security
server or an object request broker (ORB). If a customer has the J2EE Container
Host Software and the J2EE EJB Container Host JVM they should have every
thing needed to run the J2EE EJB Container. |
| J2EE Web Container Host Software. |
This is the software that is required, in addition to the virtual machine,
to support the execution of the J2EE Web Container. At a minimum,
the web container host software consists of specific version of an operating
system. However, it may also consist of additional things such as a security
server or a set of patches. If a customer has the J2EE Container Host Software
and the J2EE Web Container Host JVM they should have everything needed
to run the J2EE Web Container. |
| J2EE Web Container Host JVM |
A J2SE(s) to host the the J2EE Web Container. This is a Java 2 Virtual
Machine that has passed the Java 2 Compatibility test suite on the Web
Container Host Software. |
| J2EE Applet Environment |
A J2SE Applet environment to host the J2EE Applet client container.
This is a Java 2 Virtual Machine that has passed the Java 2 Compatibility
tests from within a provided Applet environment. An example might be the
JDK1.2 plugIn inside Netscape Communicator 4.5. |
| J2EE Web Container |
The Web container from which the required J2EE compatibility tests
for the Service APIs will be run. (See section 2.1 of the J2EE platform
specification for the required Service APIs). |
| J2EE EJB Container |
The EJB container from which the required J2EE compatibility tests
for the Service APIs will be run (See section 2.1 of the J2EE platform
specification for the required Service APIs). |
| J2EE JDBC Driver |
A 2.0 JDBC driver that will be used to execute all the end-to-end JDBC
tests from each of the J2EE server containers. |
| J2EE Database |
A database that will be used to execute all the end-to-end JDBC compatibility
tests from each of the J2EE server containers. |
| J2EE Mail Server |
A Mail Server that will be used to execute all the JavaMail compatibility
tests from each of the J2EE server containers. |
| J2EE Lookup Server |
A look up Server that will be used to execute all the JNDI compatibility
tests from each of the J2EE server containers. |
