There are times when a scalable remoteable solution is necessary. Granted these are 1 in 100 projects, (or fewer). Secondly, EJB is purely a bad implementation of this.
I recommend we table this discussion, it has drawn on. EJB/J2EE bitch-fest is not something that has a logical conclusion. I suggest participation in the design and development of AltiRMI and AJB (sp on both?) is a more productive discussion. Slam EJB by getting something far better up on Jakarta. -Andy On Fri, 2002-02-22 at 23:22, Aaron Smuts wrote: > With EJB you complicate the deployment, slow down the performance and > save nothing except looking for middleware modules.
