Why would you want to reuse a statefull session bean? You may have a different state that you want to use. We had a similar problem as we had to reuse a bean though with a different state. We then decided to have a class which had all the implementation of the bean class and the bean only called the corresponding method in the implementation class.
So now from a different bean (in the same jar) I did not have to instantiate the state full bean but called the methods in the implementation class.

We are using a builder pattern to create some of the objects. In a transaction we create the Builder (Statefull Session Bean) and then execute methods on it in order to setup certain properties. At the end of the transaction, we call the build(...) API which constructs the object according to the specifications. At the end of the transaction, we attempt to remove(...) the builder, since it's no longer needed, however, we get an exception stating that Statefull Session beans cannot be removed during transaction. If Statefull Session beans cannot be removed during a transaction, what are they good for? Since I am not sure how the deplorer will wrap transactions around my beans, I am not really able to use Statefull Session beans in ANY of my EJB development. Is there a way around this? Perhaps the bean can be submitted to some garbage collector that would wait for the transaction to be over before removing the bean? Has any one worked around this nasty problem?
