Using Home and Select Methods like Finder Methods

Hi,

I'm using CMP Entity beans in JBoss 4.0. I would like to implement a
"smart" finder method that has business logic before it returns
references to a collection of bean instances. I have implemented this
in a Home Method that calls a Select Method and returns the collection
result of the Select method back to the caller. It doesn't seem to work
right at all.

Is this a possible pattern for 2.x CMP Entity beans? Could you point me
to sample code?

Thanks for your help,
blu
