Hi Folks,
I am new to EJB.
So some questions would sound silly.

1. Can we make Session Bean Persistent. What I mean is we make a database connection and fetch the records.
2. Why does pooling concept not applies to Session Bean?

Thanks in Advance,
Sos

1. Can we make Session Bean Persistent. What I mean is we make a database connection and fetch the records.

Why wouldn't you use an Entity Bean for that? Anyway, the answer would be "yes, you can use JDBC within a Session Bean's business method."

2. Why does pooling concept not applies to Session Bean?

Stateful Session Beans cannot be pooled from a logical point of view -- because each bean instance holds a client-specific state -- but Stateless Session Beans are being pooled.

Ok, I just realized you have double-posted the question and Pradeep had already answered in the other thread...
Please, consider deleting duplicate messages in the future, ok?
