I created a parent class that my entity bean extends. In the parent class, I added the methods with @ejb.interface-method, leaving off the @ejb.persistence. The generated value object extends the methods-only parent class and it works just fine, the extra methods are accessible from my value object. This way I was able to avoid the merge-point, which I haven't tackled yet. I suppose I didn't need the parent class, but I like keeping the database representation seperate from the extra methods. /Lorraine

I was looking in entity-value.xdt instead of valueobject.xdt. My bad. At the bottom of the latter is <XDtMerge:merge file="valueobject-custom.xdt"> </XDtMerge:merge> So there ya go. Of course, that means *one* custom merge point for *all* value objects, instead of one for each entity bean. Please tell me I at least got that right. :) If so, then you could make it one-per-bean by changing it to "valueobject-custom-{0}.xdt", correct? Sorry for the mixup.
