I apologize if this is not the correct forum...

I have a byte[] in an entity that I am annotating with lob and fetch=lazy. Yet when I retrieve it though a session bean, it is fully loaded. I heard that "lazy" is only a hint. It is important that I only lazily load this. Is there a more correct way to do this?


In Entity:

private byte[] data;

@Lob
@Basic(fetch=FetchType.Lazy)
public byte[] getData() {
 return data;
}
...

Things I've tried:
I tried using a secondarytable annotation, but the field was still eagerly loaded.

I tried creating a data table and a OneToOne relationship, but when I set this relationship to be lazily loaded, jassist returns an error.

I got it to work with a OneToMany relationship, but that "bugs" me since it is really a one-to-one relationship.

Thanks for the help
