Doubt on which type of bean to choose

[Ramesh Aiyappan]

I came across the following question in one of the mock exams ...

Which of the following methods must the Bean Provider implement in an entity bean class?

A) ejbFind<METHOD>()
B) setRollbackOnly()
C) unsetEntityContext()
D) ejbSelect<METHOD>()
E) ejbLoad()

The correct answers they say are C and E.

But in case of BMP, the bean provider has to implement the ejbFind<METHOD> right?

In these cases, which type of entity beans do I have to consider (a CMP or a BMP)?

Thanks,

Hi,

With BMP entity beans you also have to write the finder and select methods, that's right!

I got a very similar question on the real exam, but it clearly stated that is was about CMP entity beans, so i don't think you have to worry. The 'real' exam questions were all very clear about such things.

BMP is not in the exam, so no need to learn anything about it .

Finder methods are not in the entity bean class, they are in the home.
