public class EJBIndirectSet

extends IndirectSet

EJBIndirectSet provides all the functionality of IndirectSet while being EJB friendly. That is, when it performs contains, remove, etc... with entity beans, the container uses the bean's 'isIdentical' method rather than the usual 'equals'.

This is necessary since serialization of the EJBObjects can cause the equality test to return false, even though they represent the same underlying entity bean.

Since:

TopLink Java 4.0
