Hi , I have a stateless sessionbean. I have a Helper class (DAOHelper)as member variable in stateless session bean class.All the bean methods check whether DAOHelper is null or not null.If null, it will create a new instance of DAOHelper class. The DAOHelper has StatusDAO and two other DAO classes as member variable. The DAOHelper methods check whether DAO class is null or not null.If null, it will create a new instance of DAO class.
My question is , since, stateless session bean has no state, can i create the DAOHelper instance in the bean's create(),so that, only one DAOHelper instance will be used for all calls.Moreover, this way, I don't have to check whether DAOHelper is null or not null in all methods. Is there any disadvantage or thread issue in creating DAOHelper instance in the create() for the above scenario?
