p 447 Sharpen your Pencil

Which ones does the compile care about?

1. ejbCreate()
2. onMessage()
3. ejbRemove() and setMessageDrivenContext()

I say #2 and #3?

If message beans don't have homes, why does p. 453 say:

"... Remember, the Container keeps a separate pool of beans for each home (and every deployed bean type gets its own home)...."

I think that is correct. coz, ejbCreate() is just mandated by ejb spec. So, the container might throw an error during deploy time maybe.

I would assume, the term *home* is used to represent a *bean type*... So, the container keeps a separate pool of beans for each *bean type*...
