[JBoss-user] findAll and RowSet

[Gregor R. <gr...@gm...>]

Hi all.

In my application I want to display a table with my objets. To make
it more performat I wanted to use RowSet instead of findAll and then
fatching the data for each object separately. (I use BMP, since the
data are already stored in an RDBMS and used by legacy applications).

This aproach works fine with a separate stateless session bean, which
contains the method:

ResultSet retrieveAllTabularData(void) throws RemoteException;


I wonder, if I can throw the additional stateless session bean away 
and declare the method retrieveAllTabularData into the home interface
of my entity bean. 

Is this allowed by the EJB spec? If yes, how can I do it? I tried
to implement it in my bean under the name retrieveAllTabularData as
well as ejbRetrieveAllTabularData, but JBoss always complained it 
cold not resolve the method.

Is the Home interface at all the place for "static" methods of EJBs?
Or is it necessary to create a stateless session bean?

Thanks for any patterns.
