EJB module from scratch

I have decided to go into new technology which is EJB (do not ask why, just because). Once in a life time I would like to do everything from beginning to end from user ter开发者_开发百科minal, coding in vi and deploying without using maven or any IDE. I have also decided to use glassfish. But I can not find any 'straight' tutorial. Basically each describes steps using netbeans or similar automatic tool. Please point me some tutorial with fully described process of creation of ejb from scratch.

Here's a couple of great resources:

Read Adam Bien's blog, his entire mission is to prove Java and Java EE are the best combination around.

Finally there's a free book Mastering EJB3.1 as a pdf, its a long but very informative book. Good luck and come back and ask more questions!
