Hi all, I want all my entity beans to use "Version Column Locking Strategy". Now, Is there any option to tell it globally?? Again, Why should I enter my locking policies to jbosscmp-jdbc.xml. I feel like the proper place should be jboss.xml of my ejb-jar . Say for order, my codes will be like this, | <entity> | <ejb-name>Order</ejb-name> | <optimistic-locking> | <version-column/> | <field-name>version_lock</field-name> | <column-name>VERSION_LOCK</column-name> | </optimistic-locking> | </entity> | But why should we put this code in jbosscmp-jdbc.xml ?? Is there any way around?? Regards, Sajid. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3966355#...
