At work I was handed a copy of Enterprise JavaBeans 3rd Ed. and told to convert an app written entirely of regular JavaBeans and JDBC calls into EJB. I haven't had too much trouble, but I've had some problems with relationships. This one should be really simple, but I haven't been able to set it up correctly. The two beans in this relationship represent an Account and a CreditCard. Each bean has a primary key named accid, and they should be equivalent. The accid in Account is generated by the database, by auto_increment. The CreditCard accid should come from the Account. As I understand it, when the AccountLocal is created, a corresponding CreditCardLocal should be as well. I get various problems when I try different stuff, so I'll just post the relevant code, and hopefully somebody can tell me what's goin on.
