Remote CMR with certain QWAN?

[sanne]

Hi,

It's my understanding that cmr in ejb 2.0 only worls on local interfaces.

So if I have a remote client creating a person:

Person p = PersonHome.create("Walter");
Address a = AddressHome.create("Amsterdam","1045zx","25");

I can't just stick it in:

p.setAddress(a);

Due to the fact that Address is a remote interface.

Possible soltutions involving Facades and Value objects are possible, but which solution would have a Certain QWAN and not result in setAddressByVO(AddressVO) calling setAddress() with a local refernce?

I would be obliged!

O.k. FYI.

I think I'll revert to the session facades and make it work that way, now I've got:


public Address getRemoteAddress() {return localToRemote(getAddressLocal());}
/**
* @ejb.interface-method view-type="remote"
*/
public void setRemoteAddress(Address address) {setAddressLocal(remoteToLocal(address));}

public AddressLocal remoteToLocal(Address remoteAddress){
if(remoteAddress == null) {return null;}
try
{
AddressLocalHome addressLocalHome = AddressUtil.getLocalHome();
return addressLocalHome.findByPrimaryKey((String)remoteAddress.getPrimaryKey());

} catch (NamingException e)
{
throw new EJBException("Error converting remote into local Unit", e);
}
catch (RemoteException e)
{
throw new EJBException("Error converting remote into local Unit", e);

} catch (FinderException e)
{
throw new EJBException("Error converting remote into local Unit", e);
}
}
public Address localToRemote(AddressLocal localAddress){
if(localAddress == null) {return null;}
try
{
AddressHome addressHome = AddressUtil.getHome();
return addressHome.findByPrimaryKey((String)localAddress.getPrimaryKey());

} catch (NamingException e)
{
throw new EJBException("Error converting remote into local Unit", e);
} catch (FinderException e)
{
throw new EJBException("Error converting remote into local Unit", e);
} catch (RemoteException e)
{
throw new EJBException("Error converting remote into local Unit", e);
}
}
