* This is the Account entity bean. It is an example of how to use the

* EJBDoclet tags.

*

* @see Customer

*

* @ejb.bean

* name="bank/Account"

* type="CMP"

* jndi-name="ejb/bank/Account"

* local-jndi-name="ejb/bank/LocalAccount"

* primkey-field="id"

* schema = "Customers"

*

* @ejb.finder

* signature="java.util.Collection findAll()"

* unchecked="true"

*

* @ejb.finder signature="java.util.Collection findByName(java.lang.String name)"

* unchecked="true"

* query= "SELECT OBJECT(o) FROM Customers AS o WHERE o.name

* LIKE ?1"

*

* @ejb.transaction

* type="Required"

*

* @ejb.interface

* remote-class="test.interfaces.Account"
