Description jrojcek 2005-03-03 14:33:19 UTC

A participant didn't know how to call an EJB from a Servlet. He 
didn't find the contextual Enterprise Resources. The facilitator 
had to point him to the contextual menu.

Because of this problem:
4 participants didn't complete Task 2

Jano, do you have some suggestion as how to fix this issue? Maybe it
will be fixed by the code snippets feature planned for a future
release? http://jupiter.czech.sun.com/wiki/view/Nbplan/NbFeature1030

Comment 2 Vince Kraemer 2005-03-10 05:35:00 UTC

It sounds like the contextual menu was "hard" to find.  Maybe we need to have a "paper-clip" feature 
that points out what can be done in the current context (without requiring the user to right-click).

Reassigning to "j2ee".

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
