Hi! I'm asking you to remove the feature that make OJB doesn't materialize a object when calling toString (IndirectionHandler, method invoke):
// handle toString differently for non-materialized proxies // to avoid materialization due to logging. if ((realSubject == null) && "toString".equals(methodName)) { return "unmaterialized proxy for " + id; } The reason for this is because any project using Swing components depends on toString to fill combo-boxes and lists. At other side, I don't see high gains of performence doing this (except when using higher levels of debugging). Thanks, Edson Richter --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
