Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi,

I would like to know if stateful session beans thread safe?

Can someone explain the multithreading aspects of stateful session beans?

To my understanding, every client request creates a new stateful bean which has a separate thread in memory & so the state for each stateful instance is not affected by any other threads (Client requests). That means it works as a Single Thread model.

But, if it so, then why we have to use Session synchronization for state thread safety.

Can some one help.

Regards
