The GWT runtime ignores annotations --- they're not kept at runtime on the client. So you can pass annotated objects perfectly happily over the link and they'll work fine. I've had good experiences using Berkeley DB JE and GWT. It's possible to query an object on the server, have Berkeley DB instantiate it for me, and then just return it directly to the client for display. So I'd imagine you could use something similar with javax.persistence. The only thing you probably need to be concerned with is that if you instantiate an object on the server, pass it to the client, then pass it back to the server, you're getting a different physical object than the one you originally instantiated so the persistence layer might get its cacheing confused. (Berkeley DB doesn't seem to be bothered by this.) -- ┌─── ｄｇ＠ｃｏｗｌａｒｋ．ｃｏｍ ───── http://www.cowlark.com ───── │ │ "They laughed at Newton. They laughed at Einstein.
