[jboss-user] [EJB 3.0 Users] - Re: Stateful session beans don't keep state !!!

[Wolfgang Knauf]

Hi,

according to your code comments, you call "setShippingInfo", then a new instance of your OrderItemBean is created, and after this "setBillingInfo" is called.
This cannot work with a Stateful bean, because you will get a new, clean instance on each lookup. The state will only be kept if you save it in some member variable.

To work around this you might place the EJB in the session (or in the request):
HttpSession session = (HttpSession) FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSession(false;
  | session.setAttribute("myPlaceOrder", placeOrder);

Later, you can reuse the "placeOrder" instance by reading it from the HttpSession.

Hope this helps

Wolfgang
