Patent ID: 7003776

Claim:
A computer-implemented method for integrating entity bean object changes occurring to an entity bean object in a container with a persistence manager, the container being capable of issuing notifications of events relating to entity bean objects contained therein, the method comprising steps of: receiving, at a notification receiver, from the container a notification of an event relating to an entity bean object in the container; setting up, by a second object storage system, a copy of the entity bean object in the persistence manager in response to the notification; determining, by the second object storage system, object changes made to the entity bean object in the container using the representation in the persistence manager; integrating, by the second object storage system, the determined entity bean object changes with the copy in the persistence manager; wherein the persistence manager connector integrates the determined object chances into the second object storage system; and maintaining, by a consistency maintaining unit, consistency between the copy of the entity bean object in the persistence manager and the entity bean object in the container.
