Hello,

My Scenario is as follows,
- I'm having a main SLSB, which is placing a call to child SLSB
- I'm getting some entities from child SLSB
- I'm changing those entities
- And, assuming that CMP will persist those entities

Result,
- Sometimes entities get perisisted
- And, sometimes it doesn't

Env: JBoss 4.2.3, PosgreSQL 8.3, Windows XP

I'm not making use of merge(), as you can see from the dummy code shown below; I'm just changing the properties & leaving it to the container for persistence.

Please suggest.

@SLSB
public class ProductBean
{
 @EJB
 private ComponentBean mComponentBean;

 public void renameMyEntity(String anOldName, String aNewName)
 {
 MyEntity entity = mComponentBean.findMyEntity(anOldName);

 // change properties of MyEntity
 entity.setName(aNewName);
 }
}

@SLSB
public class ComponentBean
{
 public MyEntity findMyEntity(String aName)
 {
 return ..;
 }
}
