Edit module with EJB facet

Though you can directly edit the source code of the deployment descriptor of a module with EJB facet, it is also possible to use a dedicated editor, where you can manage the contained beans, their relationships and security permissions.

To edit a module with EJB facet

Open the EJB tool window.
Right-click the desired module, and do one of the following:
- Choose Jump to Source from the context menu.
- Press F4.
- Double-click the EJB module node.
Same way you can also open for editing the ejb-jar.xml file. In this case, in addition to the General, Method Permissions, and Transaction Attributes tabs, the editor provides the Text tab, with the EJB-aware XML editor.
On the General tab of the editor, add new beans, edit existing beans, or delete them.
On the Method Permissions tab, configure security roles.
On the Transaction Attributes tab, specify transaction attributes for the bean methods.
