Re: Bean Design Question

Is in't this the case similar to implementing a singleton in EJB(which ofcoarse is n't viable)   I see the situation like this     1-we need multiple access to the same instance     2-all the instances (on different VM's) should look a like     3-provide fault tolerance(use replication)     4-provide persistance(but not using database)   One possible solution looks like this     -use a CORBA Singleton server, that does the job of maintaing only one instance of the chat text.(first, second and third will be solved)     -use a statefull session bean from the CORBA Singleton server so this statefull session bean would maintain the state of the current text.( fourth problem will be solved)   Am i going too far to achieve what you require -I am not sure   Sesh
