Do not pass Cayenne data objects though RMI.
I hear though that there is a multi-tier implementation of cayenne in the works.
In the mean time, on the client you should recieve value objects
instead of cayenne data objects. You might consider leaving the
server side cayenne alone and adding a method to each Cayenne Data
Object that returns a "value object"(bean) with the copied values.
One issue you will have is getting related objects throught the "value
object". You would need to implement code in the value object that
was capable of connecting to your server side RMI and getting value
objects related to the original "value object" in question.
Hope this helps a bit. There is no easy way to pass Cayenne objects
via RMI that I know of :-(
