I am currently running the Tutorial for building J2EE Applications using JBOSS and ECLIPSE chapter 6
the tutorial shows you how to create a CMP. One of the methods is findByPrimaryKey.

The problem is that when I call the findByPrimaryKey method :

SupplierLocal supplier = this.suppLocalHome.findByPrimaryKey(suppID);

It returns a null pointer value.

According to the tutorial the findByPrimaryKey is set by the container.

Using a search I can find reference to the findByPrimaryKey in two files:


SupplierHome

public au.com.tusc.cmp.Supplier findByPrimaryKey(java.lang.String pk)
throws javax.ejb.FinderException,java.rmi.RemoteException;


SupplierLocalHome


public au.com.tusc.cmp.SupplierLocal findByPrimaryKey(java.lang.String pk)
throws javax.ejb.FinderException;

But it has not generated any reference to the findByPrimaryKey method in the deployment descriptors.


What I need to know is how to set the findByPrimaryKey method within the deployment descriptors. Or how to set it up with xdoclet.

Thanks for any help.
