what is the purpose of ejbPostCreate?
Difference between ejbCreate Vs ejbPostCreate?

[Balaji Anand]

In ejbPostCreate() only the bean can pass a reference to itself ie its EJBObject and not in ejbCreate(). check what happens when u try creating an entity...u will understand the need for ejbPostCreate().

[David Harkness]

A very common use for ejbPostCreate() is setting relationships for CMR entity beans. You must do it in ejbPostCreate() snice it doesn't have a primary key yet in ejbCreate().
