    Dynamic query and read-ahead - Help needed!

      Hello!
      I am using JBoss 3.0.2 with bundled Tomcat 4.0.4.
      I am having problems using "read-ahead" with Dynamic queries. I configure my dynamic finder with the read-ahead feature, but it simply ignores them and behaves always the same. With no Dynamic queries, it works great.
      I configured my finder using Xdoclet. The Xdcolet configuration, the ejb-jar.xml extract and the jbosscmp-jbcd.xml extract are appended below.
      I need the dynamic feature because I need to execute a "SELECT...WHERE xpto IN (..,..)".

      Below are two log messages extracted from the JBoss log when my dynamic query was a simple "Select".
      When I execute the finder (1), the query returns all columns (no matter if my strategy is "on-load" or "on-find"). After this, if I execute one method which returns one Value Object with all the columns, another select is automatically executed by the
      container (2). This select shouldn't be necessary once I am still in the same transaction, so the previous data is still valid.
      If I only access columns from the Primary Key (instead of getting the VO with all columns), the select (2) isn't executed.

      I have concluded that I can't configure ?read-ahead? on Dynamic queries. Is this the expected behavior? Is it related with the JBoss version I am using? Am I doing any thing wrong? I don't want to execute two consecutive selects which return the same data.......

      Any help would be really appreciated!!

      Thanks in advance,
      Victor Batista
