I stand to be corrected - it's been a few years since I used EJB 2.x - but I would think that if you do not have container-managed relationships in CMP, that you don't need anything in ejbPostCreate() at all. And that quote - wherever you got it from - is terrible. It led you astray, and I can see why. Set some flags? What flags? How about just providing an example of one of the most common use cases for ejbPostCreate()? Whatever article or book you got that quote from, just throw it away. AHS

Yes. Adding information. In the plain English meaning of the words. > where ? Wherever you want. > Could you please elaborate this ? Not > getting you. The difference between ejbCreate and ejbPostCreate is that for database generated primary keys the primary key is not available in ejbCreate but it is available in ejbPostCreate, so if you need to run some code when creating an object (inserting a row) where you need to know the primary key which is generated by the database, then you need to put that code in ejbPostCreate. It is not something that is used much. I don't think that I have ever used that feature. >>> -----what is flag setting here ?I don't understand this.

As in if not plain English then plain IT English. Arne
