Yes, it's legal (and we're doing similar things successfully, with a mix of session and entity beans). As far as I understood, with entity beans the <reentrant>True</reentrant> flag must be set in ejb-jar.xml (at least we set it and it works, never tried without). With session beans, no special settings are needed. Of course, this easily may lead to endless recursions, so be careful... > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Alex Paransky [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Gesendet am: Dienstag, 10.
