Lazy Loading Bean Managed EJBs??

[oldblue]

Is it possible to lazy load with bean managed EJBs? I see it can be done easily with container managed EJBs.

I'm porting an app from weblogic which was doing this somehow. (I'm not sure if this was default and/or configurable in weblogic.) And rather than rewriting to use CMP for this one bean, I'd like to see if I can configure for lazy loading.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

If you are loading the data, you need to handle the lazy loading.
It is a minor optimization anyway, mainly suited for large fields like blobs.

You should concentrate on implementing things like read-ahead to avoid
the N+1 problem.
