    Why does the EJB tier Service Locator pattern not cache and is not a singleton? Wouldn't the benefits of having a singleton and caching also benefit for the EJB tier as it does for the Web Tier? Thanks

    Hi!

    Many client threads can use the same service locator class at the same time. If it is implemented as a Singleton, this means many threads can access the same EJB at the same time. And this is an error accroding to the spec!
