Jakob, Exactly. And I don't really want to define my own proxy class. I want to have access to the Collection class that the proxy is using. OJB does use my class when I have collection-class= and proxy=true, however as you say OJB wraps it with the CollectionProxy. Thus my orginial question, "I was wondering if the getData method on the CollectionProxy could be made public?". Since if the getData method was public I could call getData() which would return my collection class, and they I could call the methods I've added to my implementation of collection.
