Hello,
I need help in working around this exception. Here's the scenario. In
a stateful session bean, a particular method takes several seconds (and
maybe even a minute or so) to execute. While executing it _reads_
another entity bean. The session bean is marked "transaction required"
and uses the default isolation setting. At any given time, there are
several such session beans executing.
My understanding is that since Orion does not support optimistic
concurrency, the entity bean is "locked" by the first session while it
is executing. Hence, any other session can not read the entity bean
till the first session completes. Is my understanding correct? How can
I workaround this? Is there a more general pattern I can use for
allowing multiple clients concurrent read-only access to the entity
beans?
Thanks,
Vidur
