Not at all.
Cocobase can generate entity beans. I spent a few days looking at that
capability and it seemed comprehensive.
It's simply that we've choosen to use a persistence mechanism other than
entity beans. In our case we've been able to achieve better performance
using Cocobase than we could using entity beans.
But the primary reason we used Cocobase was to preserve our domain model
(the O/R mapping). We could have still used entity beans with cocobase, but
why?
We're still using session beans to provide a facade into the persistence
layer (cocobase).
It works very well for our needs. Your mileage may vary! :-)
