I have read that when ejbPassivate()
is called Stateful Session Beans are usually evicted but Entity Beans and Stateless Beans are pooled which means they are not appilicable for passivation.
In another article I have read that activation and passivation is applicable only for Stateful Session Beans and Entity Beans which is a contrast to the claim that Entity Beans and Stateless Beans are pooled.
For what beans does the passivation apply and what does really happen when they do?
