Nat, Yes, if I continue the way I have been going, I�ll be bald soon aswell ;-) !
I think you�re probably right because I had it working before I tried to autogenerate the self-referencing beans using xdoclet. Before I end up wasting further hours trying to get it working I�ll revert back to the session bean idea. How do you actually send your data back to the client from your session facade when you have a collection of local enity beans? Do you iterate through the collection of local entity beans in order to fill the value objects creating a new collection or is there a better way? Good luck with your app and thanks again.

( I too am on my own, using only the EJB Book and the forums ) sounds to me like trying to get XDoclet to auto-generate CMR code for a boundary condition might get you into more trouble than it's worth . Why dont you program it yourself in a session bean, and just use the ejb.finders for handling the self-referencing queries ? similarly, by the time I got a response to my question last week, I had already programmed the 3 beans (M bean, N bean, and the relationship bean) myself with my Session code taking care of all the relationship stuff (finders and cascade deletes)... it wasnt that much work... If I have another M:N relation in my app I will use the jboss.relation-table but for the moment I am happy using my code as it is... it give me the flexibility to add more fields to the relation table. cheers, Nat On Sat, 5 Apr 2003, Michael Delamere wrote: > Hi Nat, > > Thanks very much for your reply.
