corected question on ejbActivate()

[Amit Kumar]

my previous mail contain some typos here is the correct mail   In an Entity Bean corresponding to ejbActivate() method please correct me if my understanding is not correct: A bean after creation goes to pool. If some client calls create then a bean is picked up from the pool and then its ejbCreate() followed by ejbPostCreate() is called. Now if come business mehtod is invokded it will be executed. In this way ejbActivate() doesnot get a chance be executed ,so if I want to ensure that the ejbActivate() must have been called before any business method execution I must call ejbActivate() from the ejbPostCreate().
