This is by no means "stylistic": it is required by the EJB spec. Get it from java.sun.com and read it!
Only local beans can participate in container managed relationships Bernhard -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Nathaniel Rahav [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Dienstag, 21. Januar 2003 06:47 An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Betreff: [JBoss-user] CMR with Remote Objects Dear JBoss Users, Is the following pseudocode permissible in a separate JVM from the JBoss server: Object1Home firstHome = lookupHome ( "object1" ) Object1 firstRemoteObject = firstHome.create (...) Object2Home secondHome = lookupHome ("object2") Object2 secondRemoteObject = secondHome.create (...) ** this is the operation in question *** secondRemoteObject.setObject1 ( firstRemoteObject ) ** where "setObject1" is a CMR method ** The reason I ask if this is possible is that, in all the code samples i have come across, the CMR methods accept and return EJBLocal refs. I am wondering if this is a stylistic choice or if there is a functional reason for it. though I understand the design flaws in EntityBeans exposing themselves to direct calls from the client, I am just trying to unit test my beans using JUnit, and want to test CMR by passing objects over the wire. Currently, I am executing code similar to above, and I'm receiving a "ClassCastException" from the server. Any ideas ? please CC me directly on your responses . thanks in advance Nathaniel ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user This e-mail and any attachment is for authorised use by the intended recipient(s) only.
