Importing a non-EJB package into an EJB project?

[Brian Ploetz]

Hi all,

We are in the process of building an EJB middleware system, and I'm
trying to reuse as much code from our existing Java applications as
possible. One such package I'm trying to reuse is a JDBC package which
contains classes which represent different databases in our system as
well as convience classes for performing queries and calling stored
procs.
In order to use this package in WebLogic, all I have to do is change
the database accessor classes to use the Connection objects from
WebLogic's connection pool....easy enough. But how do I go about
deploying this package to WebLogic using VCE 3.1? Since it seems like
each Entity Bean needs it's own project, do I need to add the package to
each Project? If so, when I deploy the Beans to the WebLogic Server,
there will be a lot of replicated class files, thus wasted space.
My question is: How do I utilize classes in a non-EJB package in an
Entity Bean? Is it possible? Thanks for any info you can provide!
