The topics in this section describe mandatory requirements for the use of
business objects in interaction patterns.
The BusinessObject initialization library routine is required for EJBs that
create business objects. The JAR file containing it
(boutils.jar) must be part of the Enterprise Application project (EAR
Project) and specified as the dependency of the EJB module. These are
the steps:
- Select the EAR application in the Business Integration Perspective, J2EE
Hierarchy View. Right-click on it and choose Import.
- Use the Import dialog to navigate to and import the boutils.jar
file that is shipped with the adapter.
- Verify that the newly imported file appears within the folder hierarchy
for the enterprise application:
- Add the imported jar to the list of dependencies of the EJB module (in the
above EAR) in which you are planning to use the utility library. Select
the EJB project, then properties from the popup menu and Java JAR Dependencies
in the list.

- Check the box for boutil.jar
- Press OK.
Now the boutils.jar file is part of the Enterprise Application and
will be included in the EAR file.
