OK, now I'm confused. Using JBoss 2.4.4, how do I correctly return application level errors from my entity bean's ejbStore method? Do I throw my own exception? Does this exception extend RemoteException, Exception? Since ejbStore actually overrides its ancestor's method, how do I declare that my own exception will be thrown? If I don't declare it as being thrown, I get a compile time error.
