Hello Bernard

Yes, I was thinking about that. Probably 2 flags: <scanclasses> <scanjars>

<scanclasses> would scan the target\classes and target\test-classes
directory

<scanjars> would scan the jar dependencies

About the include/exclude capability, I think it would be redundant, since
that's the purpose for hibernate.cfg.xml or persistence.xml

What are your thoughts about this Bernard?

Regards

Johann Reyes

Hi Johann,

I would again suggest that the scanner code should have 
"include/exclude" capability and that it also scans "compile"
dependency jar files for annotated classes.

The rational for this is that the default behaviour would be the 99% 
case where the developer wants all
the annotated classes processed but allowing the developer to control 
which classes are processed. I think
this follows the "configuration by convention" philisophy but  allows 
the developer to work around unintended
consequences of  including dependencies required for compilation that 
have persistence annotations not required
to build / test the module under development.
