We'll, I posted to soon.  The soultion as quite simple after a little
digging ;-)

in OJB properties change the ObjectCacheClass to use
ojb.broker.cache.MetaObjectCacheImpl:

ObjectCacheClass=ojb.broker.cache.MetaObjectCacheImpl

the code:

<snip>
 try
 {
    MetaObjectCacheImpl ojbCache =
     (MetaObjectCacheImpl) ObjectCacheFactory.getObjectCache();
     // Turn of caching for TscPrice
     ojbCache.setClassCache(TscPrice.class, null);
 }
 catch (ClassCastException cce)
 {
     String msg =
      "TscPricingService should only use the
ojb.broker.cache.MetaObjectCacheImpl."
    + "  This is due to the fact that caching MUST be turned off in OJB for
the TscPrice class"
    + " in order for pricing to work correctly";
    logger.error(msg);
    throw new InitializationException(msg);
 }

</snip>

preliminary test show that this is working.
