/**
* Convenient base class for EJB 2.x stateless session beans (SLSBs),
* minimizing the work involved in implementing an SLSB and preventing
* common errors. <b>Note that SLSBs are the most useful kind of EJB.</b>
*
* <p>As the ejbActivate() and ejbPassivate() methods cannot be invoked
* on SLSBs, these methods are implemented to throw an exception and should
* not be overriden by subclasses. (Unfortunately the EJB specification
* forbids enforcing this by making EJB lifecycle methods final.)
*
* <p>There should be no need to override the <code>setSessionContext()</code>
* or <code>ejbCreate()</code> lifecycle methods.
*
* <p>Subclasses are left to implement the <code>onEjbCreate()</code> method
* to do whatever initialization they wish to do after their BeanFactory has
* already been loaded, and is available from the <code>getBeanFactory()</code>
* method.
*
* <p>This class provides the no-arg <code>ejbCreate()</code> method required
* by the EJB specification, but not the SessionBean interface, eliminating
* a common cause of EJB deployment failure.
