Another data point is a 1.1 EJB server I'm beta testing also requires
PortableRemoteObject.narrow() for collection/finder references.

<This message is posted to both J2EE- and EJB-INTEREST>
As far as I can tell from the EJB 1.1 spec, the
PortableRemoteObject.narrow() method is required when a remote reference
of type EJBObject or EJBHome is obtained in the follow three scenarios:
When a EJBHome is returned from a JNDI lookup.
When a EJBHome is returned from a HomeHandle
When a EJBObject is returned from a Handle.
What about when a collection (or Enumeration) is returned from a finder
method? Seems to me that this would also require explicit narrowing
using the PortableRemoteObject.narrow( ) method. Can someone confirm?
Also, it seems obvious, but worth mentioning, that any wide remote
reference will need the assistance of the PortableRemoteObject to be
narrowed to its appropriate type.
