    hi,
    EJB1.1 specifies that the findmethords must return a Collection.(ACollection of ejb Objects)
    Can we use an Enumeration as return type instead of a collection
    Thanks

    Hi,

    IN EJB1.1 it's enumeration, the return type for find methods..

    Hi,

    with EJB 1.0 finders must return an enumeration.
    In EJB1.1 with jdk 1.1 finders return an enumeration, with jdk 1.2 finders can return a collection.

    You really can return either. In Sybase EAServer we added a feature where you can return in your bean say Collection, but when you generate stubs you can say you need to support a JDK 1.1 client and we generate a remote/home which returns Enumeration and we remap it all on the fly when we marshall it.
