Am not totally sure yet :) Was hoping someone less heavily loaded would dive in and experiment :) I guess the most natural starting point could be to just model JPA beans first - as entity beans are naturally CRUD-ish, map nicely to RESTful resources, have definite collections, relationships & navigation paths. So start with entity beans & get those working (i.e. expose all/any JPA entity beans as APP easily); then see if we can work on other things afterwards as a pseudo entity bean maybe? Resources often map to 'entities' of some kind (little blobs of XML, a row in a database etc) so rather than starting with the random any-old-Java-object service model - starting with entity beans might be a better start? -- James ------- http://macstrac.blogspot.com/
