Hi,

I was hoping i could get some suggestions from people on how to best handle
the issue of persisting data. For discussion purposes, lets use Order and
Order line items.  I have modeled Order as a CMP based entity bean.  From
previous posts in the archives I gather that dependant data should not be
modeled as entity beans.  In which what is the suggested design for
persisting and loading the line items. What i have been doing thus far is
adding the persistence code to the entity bean and let it control the
dependant object. Is this the right way of doing things?

The thing that i don't like about that approach is that the Order bean has
the flexibility of having its data source changed without impact to the
component. If the component now contains hand coded persistance code, it
then become unportable.  I would be very keen on knowing how is the best way
to approach this common problem.

thanks in advance.
Tom
