Basic EJB Doubts

[Senthamizh]

Hi,
According to the EJB Specification,
-Entity beans are shared access to the clients. What is it mean?.
- What is Conversational State in Stateful Session Bean?.
- Where and when should i use session bean?. Where and when shouldn't i use session bean?.
- Where and when should i use Entity bean with CMP?.
- Where and when should i use Entity bean with BMP?.
Can anyone explain with example?.
Plz.
Regards,
Senthamizh

The best would be to refer to "Core J2EE Patterns: Best Practices and Design Strategies".
It is a very good book which explains in clear details about if we use entity bean or the session bean.

I agree, and you might also want to take a look at an EJB book such as "Mastering EJB" that can be found in PDF format on http://www.theserverside.com.
BTW, Senthamizh, can you take a quick look at the naming policy and edit your profile accordingly.
Cheers
Simon
