Hi Simone

If you write your code to take advantage of a) an implementation detail of
the underlying middleware (in this case the precise detail of how CMP works
in jBoss, don't forget CMP is *not* tied to being a relational mapping only,
let alone a standardised relational mapping) and you take advantage of a
feature specific to a particular container (using the commit option set in
jboss.xml) then you are leaving yourself open to the container developer
quite validly changing their implementatio of CMP, you are also tying
yourself to that particular container.

Don't follow. Which code is broken ? Can you post an example ?
