Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi all,

When using JBoss (I don't know other servers behavior) the findByPrimaryKey method creates a "home instance".
I think that JBoss need a "home instance" for finder methods and it could create only one to do that, but, in fact, it creates a new instance for each call and doesn't reuse it.
For example:
Integer pk = new Integer(1);

First findByPrimaryKey(pk): 2 instances created (Home instance and Bean instance)
Secound findByPrimaryKey(pk): 1 instance created (Home instance)
Third findByPrimaryKey(pk): 1 instance created (Home instance)

The ejbLoad method is called only on the first call (it's my configuration).

Any idea?

Thank you,
Denis.
