Hi Daniel, Perhaps you should look at using proxies on your collections first (this will require no refactoring, just add proxy="true" to your collection descriptors) and then possible proxy your references (requires interface) before looking at using dynamic proxies on all classes. This seems to be the concept that works well in many cases.

While waiting for someone to respond, i thought i'd give the "one simple interface" a quick go.... Sadly it doesnt work :) Oh well, eclipses refactoring tools will come in handy! A quick question regarding inherritance (assuming I[beanname] are interfaces to bean properties): Job extends BaseBO. BaseBO implements IBaseBO. IJob only interfaces the extra methods in Job over BaseBO. OJB doesnt know about the inherritance (ie it knows nothing about BaseBO). getId is only interfaced in IBaseBO. Do i need to do anything more? eg... Should IJob extend IBaseBO? Should Job implement IBaseBO?
