I mean, I won't be able to know if data is really changed and I must process all data again, or if the cache should persist. Because the load() should happen always after a activate(), with changes or without them. BTW, can the scenario below happen ( it happened to me ): - I process some data (business method) and cache some data for the entity #1. - I let the entity bean go to passivate state. - I test the cache for the entity #2 and for the entity #1. The cache exist for the entity #2 but doesn't exist for entity #1. Both entity beans went to the pool, but when I invoked them again, the pool gave the objects swapped for the entity beans. So, if the cache is not possible to do in the entity beans, what is the need of the activate() if the load() will always occur? And, we cannot access to any of the entity beans methods there... regards, Pedro Salazar. -- -PS ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
