No the session bean is the most important part of this pattern, it is the stateless session bean that caches a reserved range of integers. anonymous wrote : I hope you know what I mean - just a relatively simple entity bean that grabs blocks of 10 or 100 or 1000 integers from a primary key database table, and has a method returning the next key, refreshing the block if it runs out. No the entity bean does not grab a block of integers, the entity bean just holds a record of the highest integer reserved by one of the session bean instances. The stateless session bean holds the integer range that it has reserved using member variables, when the end of the range is reached the session bean makes use of the entity to reserve a new range. <a href="http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3827576#3827576";>View the original post</a> <a href="http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3827576>Reply to the post</a> ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
