Adding fields to CMP entity beans

In UML visualization, you can add fields to container-managed persistence (CMP) entity beans and define them as key fields.

To add a field to a CMP entity bean:

1. In the diagram editor, right-click a CMP entity bean; then click Add EJB > CMP Fields.

2. In the CMP Fields wizard, click Add.

3. In the CMP Attributes window, specify a name and a type for the CMP field, specify its array dimension or define it as a key field, and click Apply.

4. Click Finish.

Tip: You can also use the action bars in the diagram editor or the EJB Deployment Descriptor to add fields to CMP entity beans.
