Well, no approach would ever suit all needs. I prefer to split beans into "modules" where it makes sense - say sequence generator bean et al. lives in separate ejb-jar, and thus can be reused easily between applications ) and my data beans live in separate package. In ejb module i use following layout: src/ -> bean live there in "ejb" package build/gen-src -> xdoclet generates there, original sources are copied there, and javac compiles from there Generating one ejb-jar for every bean seems to be overkill to me... > Do you have an enterprise bean per package?

And do not use IDEs which cost a lot of money, and try to be smarter than myself :) ( i scraped JBuilder, NetBeans ( too slow ) , Eclipse ( too smart :) ) and Together (memory hog ) in favor of jEdit ) regards, ===== Konstantin Priblouda ( ko5tik ) Freelance Software developer < http://www.pribluda.de > < play java games -> http://www.yook.de > < render charts online -> http://www.pribluda.de/povray/ > __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
