For the sake of simplicity my database contains 2 tables ? containers and 
fruits.  I need to show a report that contains a list of fruits for every 
container

So, on my report page I have to iterate through the list of containers and for 
every container show the list of fruits 

I generated the entities using seam-gen and received the following objects:
Container
ContainerList
ContainerHome

Fruit
FruitList
FruitHome 


In the Container object I have the method that retrieves the set of fruits.  
However, due to the specifics of JSF I cannot iterate through the set on the 
page ? I can iterate only through the list.  Also, the ContainerHome object has 
a method that retrieves the list of fruits for a particular container.

Please, let me know what it the best strategy?

I think that I have several options. First, I can add  @Transient method in the 
Container object that retrieves the list of fruits.  What is better ? to use 
the existent Set method and transfer Set to List or to write another query?

Second, I can somehow for every Container use the List method specified in the 
ContainerHome object.  However, I do not know how to get the reference to the 
ContainerHome object for a particular Id on a JSF.

Should I create a new Session Bean for this task or I can use only Entity beans 
originally generated by seam-gen?

Thank you very much for a feedback
