Did I get this right, you have a web-service layer that behaves like a (data-centric) resource and you like to use/hide it from/by a higher-level J2EE logic.
Interesting. David Jenks told something about the new JCA<->JAXM specification drafted for J2EE1.4 ... Maybe there could be design stances behind which go in your direction? SB->EB(BMP)->JCA->JAXM->Legacy could then be a way to go, but you have to make sure not to let the Persistence operations too fine-grained. SB->JCA->JAXM->Legacy will be most likely the more pratical way, but sometimes leads to bad design. Interested in pursuing that idea? Give David and me a note ...

On a personal note: (Using jboss/jboss.net....) In terms of good design, say I have a legacy system that exposes its api as web services, and I wish to use this in several places in a large deployment (including lots of other integrations, and cmp where appropriate), what is the community take on creating bmp's using web services code? Pros: Identical interface to business logic developers using entities in other parts of the system, container cache (in some cases), abstraction, ... Cons: "Over-design", cache agreement difficulties etc (not being master), Anyone care to give their opinion? :) Thomas -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thomas Aardal; +47 97566202; +47 22331515; fax +47 22336024 Biskop Gunnerusgt. 2; Boks 805 Sentrum, 0104 Oslo; www.conduct.no; [EMAIL PROTECTED] -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user ########################################### This message has been scanned by F-Secure Anti-Virus for Microsoft Exchange.
