Description Alex Blewitt CLA 2010-11-17 17:17:21 EST 
Build Identifier: 1.0.0.M2-incubation

The org.eclipse.gemini.javax.persistence ships a javax.persistence library encased in a bundle with some other helpful JARs. However, by doing so, it means that it's potentially incompatible with any other installation of the javax.persistence specification that may be already installed in an OSGi runtime.

The bundle should really be split apart to separate out the Gemini contribution from the standard javax.persistence API/SPI.

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Alex Blewitt CLA 2010-11-17 17:23:35 EST 
In fact ... I don't know how this actually would ever work. It subclasses form an internal class (so the type information can't be found) and the classes used to define the persistence wirings will be from a different library to that of the internal lib used by this bundle.

EclipseLink 2.2 (M5 or later) build of javax.persistence bundle must be used.
