PersistenceManager UserObject
Hi Karan,
The UserObject pattern is intended for applications that need to
access some local state that is associated with the persistence
context. Any persistent object can navigate to its persistence manager
and access some application-specific data.
This turned out to be very useful in JDO, so much so that users asked
for finer-grained UserObject information: a Map of UserKey and
UserValue.

Hi Craig,
What is the purpose of get/setUserObject in the pm api? What would be the
use-case where i would use these methods?

Hi Karan,
yes, I think this should work.

Hi Michael,
I am thinking of a scenario where it can be used. Correct me if i am wrong.
lets say a stateless session bean (Container managed transaction), has a
method
method A(){
// get the pm
pm.setUserObject(new Object());
B();
pm.close();
}
another session bean has
method B(){
//get pm
pm.getUserObject(); //this should work
}
assuming that the same transaction got propagated to B(), should we be able
to get the UserObject, because the second session bean should also get the
same instance of pm as the first one.
Let me know if this could be a usecase of get/set User Object

I think nothing will happen. Accoring to the spec a user object is not
inspected or used in any way by the JDO implementation.
