Apologies, I probably didn't make myself sufficiently clear. With EJB 2.0, aren't finder queries meant to be specified in the ejb-jar.xml file using EJB-QL? Consequently, Orions's lack of support for EJB-QL means that it's currently not possible to write portable CMP EJBs.
Yes, I realise that you can get the orion-ejb-jar.xml file and edit the finders in that, but one of the touted benefits of the latest release of J2EE is that CMP is now a lot more portable between app servers, and doing that destroys this benefit. Or have I missed something? Still finding my feet with J2EE programming, so if anyone wants to set me straight, I'd appreciate it.
