Stateless DAOs and SMPC

[fabricio.lemos]

I just implemented my first Seam conversation and now I want it to use a Seam-managed persistence context.

I have SFSBs accessing SLSBs DAOs. Reading the posts I could see two ways of doing this:

1. Implement my DAOs as Stateful Seam components.
2. Declare the EM not only in DAOs, but also in the SFSBs.

First question: are these ways correct?
Second: These two ways seems to be a little strange solutions. Are there other ways?

thanks in advance,

Neither (1) nor (2) is needed. If it is a *seam-managed* extended persistence context, it Just Works.

If it was a *container-managed* extended persistence context, that is a different ballgame and something like (1) or (2) is necessary.

You are misunderstanding the forum discussions.
