Hi,
There is many issues with creating threads and how you solve it (corba
server, jms, database) depends on what the threads do. Do the threads
(active object) access entity beans since you will lose your transaction
semantics? In short you should never create threads in the same jvm as your
ejb container. The ejb container needs to be in control of all resources
i.e. threads, jdbc connections, memory (object pool, state cache).
