Hi,
Thanks for all the support, At this stage I am having problems with the deployment, as for some reason xdocklet is not creating the create method, and the deployment scripts in OpenEJB is complaining that it needs it, and so refuses to deploy. I need to have a deeper look at the specs and my stuff before I can understand what I am doing wrong, as my application works with Jboss, without the Create method in the home interface, but this is also assuming EJB 2.0 specs (but when deploying in OpenEJB I have configured it, atleast I think I have configured it to build as EJB 1.1). This error message only seems to happen on certain beans and not all beans. Anyways, it just means that it will take me longer then previously thought to let you know that I have tested the OpenEJB code.
Thanks again, will let oyu all know if I am successful at the deployment.
Also I would like to add, The main reason I am looking at OpenEJB is the ability to deploy EJBS per webapss, without needing an external app/deamon process. It is this fact taht I can deploy it easily into a tomcat env that makes it most attractive and interesting. As withthe discusion people have been having, Third party ISPs usually only proide Tomcat envs, taht you are not allowed to change common areas, so the ability to deloy within a single webapp, is very important. in fact, it would be even better if thre is no need to restart tomcat as well. As this sort of request the ISPs don't take kindly to. So if you add the ability to dynamically reload new Beans, or the ability to manually tell the OpenEJB containers to reload a new Bean adn configuration without tomcat restarting would make a huge difference.
as I get more time later this yar, I am happy to contributte some of my time to assist in the ongoing improvements, if you think I can help.

OpenEjb1 is 1.0 compliant
is == supports ;)
OpenEJB 1.x supports EJB 1.1 spec.
OpenEjb is 2.0 compliant
OpenEJB 2.x is to support EJB 2.1 spec. Geronimo will approach the J2EE certification with OpenEJB 2.x as its EJB container.
Is this correct?
More or less, with the exception of is == supports.
Also can Geronimo run in perwebapp mode? As I need a EJB env taht can run from a per webapp mode.
No, not at the moment. OpenEJB 2.x doesn't have the features of OpenEJB 1.x regarding to the Tomcat integration. It's going to be added later.
by the way, thanks again for all the help you and lajos gave.. it was really good.
