Judging from some activity on the openjpa mailing list I think donald
would be available to push some snapshots later today so I'd suggest
waiting an hour or two to see if (2) is possible. If that doesn't work
out then (1) would be better.
Is there a rev # or two that people could revert locally to get a
buildable trunck?
thanks

There's a nasty build breakage in trunk caused by switching to the
latest jpa 2.0 spec jar from the one used for the OpenJPA milestone
release. This change requires some code changes to the Geronimo
code because some methods were removed and some classes were moved
to different package locations. I've got the code compiling cleanly
with the new spec jar, but that just moved things on to another
problem.
The next problem to arise came from the mismatch between the OpenJPA
2.0.0-M3 release and this spec jar. The M3 OpenJPA code still had
references to classes in the old package locations, so we ended up
with ClassNotFoundExceptions while trying to build. Ok, this should
be a simple fix...it just requires changing the OpenJPA version to
the 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT level. And here is where things start to get
nasty. The current trunk code for OpenJPA no longer builds the
OpenJPA jars as bundles. This issue was already noticed by the
Aries folks and a Jira was opened on it:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-1478?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel
Donald fixed this today, but it does not appear that he's pushed new
snapshots to the repo yet, so I haven't been able to test against
the new jars. I did make an attempt at creating a geronimo bundle
from these jars, but ran into some resource loading issues between
the openjpa jar and the openjpa-persistence-jdbc jars that I was
never able to work out. I tried building openjpa locally, but ran
into a couple of dependency issues I haven't had the chance to chase
down.
So, the build is sort of broken in its current state. The Geronimo
code won't compile against the current spec jar without changes and
the openjpa2 plugin can't build with the current openjpa snapshot
because of the missing bundle information. Should I
1) back off the spec change
2) check in the changes to fix the compile errors and use the new
openjpa snapshot and wait for the new snapshot of openjpa to show up
