Hi Alex
Just a note, the Proxy Objects are just wrapper classes for the EJB. They
are not part of Cactus, only a name i give to them to make them sound good.

Aaargh!!! Ignorance has betrapped me again!
I didn't know about the Proxy class, and so I embarked in a very strange
way to do the same thing.
Short explanation: create a mock Bean, compile into a .class, then use a
custom ClassLoader to modify its behavior at runtime (changing ClassFile
entries).
Heck! Proxies allow for a much sharper implementation.

I also created a mock InitialContextFactory and a mock Context. They
seem to work ok.
Un saludo,
Alex.
