how to use return value of EJBFind method - I mean the collection

[raminaa niilian]

Hi
Thank you for reading my post.
all ejbFind methods return a collection or one ejb local ,
I do not know how to use that collection ?
is it correct to use toArray() and get an array of ejbLocal from the collection ?
or it is memory /resource consumer and we should use other methods ?
how i can access items of that collection ?

Thank you

I think you should be reading this:

(unless I misunderstood the question completely!)

Thank you.
One of my question was about using Collection as i did not use them before
another question was about Using DTO pattern,
which i found some very useful reference for them :
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/java/j2ee/designpattern/index.html

and
http://java.sun.com/blueprints/corej2eepatterns/Patterns/TransferObject.html

which i found more expressive .


Thank you again for collection link
