How do I make an entity attribute non-persistent?

[mlavannis]

I have defined an entity class (bean) which has 4 attributes. By default, Seam persists all the attributes to a table (i.e. the corresponding database table has 4 columns). However, I do not want one of the attributes to be persisted (i.e. the corresponding database table should have only 3 columns). How can I tell Seam not to persist one of the attributes?

Apply the @Transient annotation to the getter method.
