Hello! As far as I understand, there's no way to cache states across sessions in EJB, right? Then how can I accomplish this: We have some chained Java objects to be converted into EJBs, and these objects perform quite costly operations. But the data these operations return should only be temporary so it wouldn't really make sense to model it in the DB. For the sake of performance, we put the data in a buffer and use a flag to check whether the condition has changed, and only recalculate the whole thing if there's any change. But with EJB, I cann't really hold a buffer in the bean because I don't have any control over the life cycle of the bean:-( Well, to rephrase my question, is there some way to retrieve some cached state from EJB without resort to persistent storage? Any hint or tip will be highly appreciated and many thanks in advance! regards ZHU Jia =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff EJB-INTEREST".
