Original status: 1-Dispatched; Suggested Status: NEW Original submitter: pzavadsky Description: There is needed an API to be able to retrieve for specified DesignBean its backing design bean. The API doesn't need to be directly on the DesignBean, but it might be on its DesignInfo or other way but accessible starting with the DesignBean instance. There is an example of possible enhancement and also more detailed description based on the hack provided for the last J1 (implemented for the table backed by its cached rowset): http://jupiter.czech.sun.com/wiki/view/Creator/DesignerDecorations#API_Enhancement_Suggestion Don't take that as only solution, you might provide a better one.
