EJB 2.1 xdoclet creates a session context

private SessionContext context;

I get the above warning why. I know its because its not being read locally but I figure it was generated for a reason. What is that reason? Can I just erase this line?

Its just there for your convenience. You can safely remove it if you don’t need to save a copy of your SessionContext for use during the life of your Session bean. It is recommended though that you save this variable as it is likely you will need it at some point.

what is sessioncontext used for? When would I need it?

[Greg]

The sessioncontext will allow you to obtain a reference to the EJB object that is currently associated with the session bean instance.
