Dain, you already answered the reason for Option B. However, when you said "very little we can reuse", you seems to assume CMP. In our cases, we use Option B and BMP that uses versioning for optimistic lock. Surprisedly, in the current implementation of JBoss, our optimistic lock not only gets nothing, but even hurts the performance (because an extra select must be issued). Please re-think the priority to support Option B. _________________________________________________________ View thread online: http://main.jboss.org/thread.jsp?forum=66&thread=12462 _______________________________________________ Jboss-development mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-development
