[JBoss-user] Very confused about transactions!!

[Brian M. <bri...@au...>]

Hi guys,

I reckon I'm going to come across as a dope here, but anyway :-)

I read recently that for entity beans that use ejb2 cmp only Required,=20
RequiresNew or Mandatory transaction attributes are allowed. Does this=20
mean that every single method on every single Entity Bean using CMP must =
be in a=20
transaction? Is this not massively overkill? For example, to read a =
value in an=20
entity bean it has to be in a transaction?

have I got this correct?

cheers,
Brian
