EJB Programing Restrictions
-----------------------------
The enterprise bean must not attempt to define a class in a package. This function is reserved for the EJB Container. Allowing the enterprise bean to perform this function would create a security hole.

Could you explain in detail, because i am confused.

Thanks,

It was this statement that convinced me that it was talking about "defining a class in a package" at runtime - by generating the JVM bytecodes in memory and then attempting to load the class - this would bypass any safeguards present in the J2EE deployment/verifier tools.
