David Jencks commented on GERONIMO-4468:
----------------------------------------
Just to be clear -- I agree with Janko, to get a non-lib jar avaliable for jpa
you need to include it in the module's manifest class path. As a warning note
that if you include this jar in several web module manifest classpaths each web
app will load the classes in its own classloader so transferring one of these
objects from web app to web app will result in ClassCastExceptions.
> <jar-file> elements are interpreted relatively to EAR root

> Key: GERONIMO-4468
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4468
> Project: Geronimo
> Issue Type: Bug

> The <jar-file> elements in a persistence.xml are wrongly interpreted as
> relative to the EAR's root.
> EJB 3.0 persistence spec, section 6.2:
> {quote}
> [...] A persistence unit is defined by a persistence.xml file. The jar file
> or directory whose META-INF directory contains the persistence.xml file is
> termed the root of the persistence unit. [...]
> {quote}
> EJB 3.0 persistence spec, section 6.2:
> {quote}
> One or more JAR files may be specified using the jar-file elements [...] Such
> JAR files are specified relative to the root of the persistence unit [...].
> {quote}
> The attached EAR is correctly verified by the Glassfish verifier. Deploying
> it on Geronimo 2.1.3 or 2.2-SNAPSHOT results in a successful deployment,
> while on the console OpenJPA throws exceptions because it tries to resolve
> the jar-file paths relative to the EAR's root:
