The ejbPostCreate method is used to set some relationships between related beans, after the bean has been constructed.

The container calls ejbPostCreate() after it has associated your bean instance with an EJB object. You can now complete your initialization by doing anything you need to that requires that EJB object, such as passing your bean's EJB object reference to other beans. You might also use this method to reset certain transaction-related parameters. For example, you could keep a data status flag in the bean to indicate whether a field has been changed. Because the bean instance may have been used before, these fields might have dirty data.

Hi,

In the ejbPostCreate is the method which gets called after the record gets inserted into the database so that if you have any problems like DuplicateKeyException etc can be got and caught accordingly.

Hope this helps....

since client cannot interact directly with bean , can only call create method on home interface....there should be someway where the actions that must take place on bean according to neccessity...right..that's why ejbcreate will be called by container after client calls create() method....hope this will help u a bit....
