EJB returning ArrayList

[patnim17]

Hi,
Since ArrayList implements Serializabel class, can I return this from remote EJB calls. I have serializable objects inside this ArrayList also..?

Don't see why not.

You can pass anything which is Serializable between client and server in EJB. When marshalling objects for transmitting between such layers, they are are serialized into the communication stream. Just ensure that the sending and receiving class definitions are identical (or have the same serialVersionUID), otherwise it will fail.
