Hi,

as you wrote, "Home interfaces" are gone in EJB 3.x.
Bean instances are created whenever needed: if using an "@EJB" annotation, the server will create a new bean (or take an unused instance from the pool). If you inject a stateful session bean, the server will also take care to restore the state from some previous session.

And if you perform a JNDI lookup, you will also get a fresh instance of the bean. I think that each lookup of a stateful bean will kill its state - so if you need a stateful bean, store it in some membervariable on the client side after the initial lookup.

Hope this helps

Wolfgang
