Thomas Hug commented on DELTASPIKE-940:
---------------------------------------

The main reason to use a resolver approach in the Data module was that there is 
a similar approach in the JSF module (MessageResolver AFAIR) so to stick to 
this also in the JPA module would be overall consistent. 

Another disadvantage of {{@Transactional(qualifier = ...}} is that a qualifier 
is limited to an annotation type. A "proper" qualifier could also include 
arguments, e.g. {{@MyDB(DbSchema.CUSTOMER)}} which wouldn't work with this 
approach. 

Anything speaking against moving {{EntityManagerResolver}} into the JPA module?

> @Transactional and @EntityManagerConfig each use a different method to 
> resolve EntityManagers

> When an application uses multiple {{EntityManager}}'s, there must be a way to 
> specify which one(s) should be used. Currently, {{@Transactional}} and 
> {{@EntityManagerConfig}} use different approaches:
> - {{@Transactional}} can take one or more qualifiers directly in its 
> {{qualifier()}} member ({{@Transactional(qualifier = MyDB.class)}})
> - While {{@EntityManagerConfig}} must define an {{EntityManagerResolver}} 
> ({{@EntityManagerConfig(entityManagerResolver = 
> MyDBEntityManagerResolver.class}})
> I think both should be unified and use a single way to specify which 
> {{EntityManager}} to use. IMHO, the {{@Transactional}} way of doing looks 
> better and should be applied to {{@EntityManagerConfig}}.
