EJB array fields

[baba]

Hi everybody.

I have to make an entity EJB, one field of which should be an array of
Strings (for instance a Car EJB and one field should be a list of people who
have permission to use it).

Can somebody tell me in a few words what's the best way to model this?

You cannot have an array of Strings as a property of a CMP EJB, you will
need to create a PersonEJB and set up a one-to-many relationship from your
CarEJB to your PersonEJB.

Do you really need EJB for this? EJB is quite invasive of your code & quite
an overhead for something this simple. Have you looked at other persistence
mechanisms? Hibernate would be ideal for this http://www.hibernate.org/

Apologies for leaving part of my sig at the top of the last mail :-) In case
this threw you & you didn't scroll down to my answer, I've posted it again
here :-)
