             Project: OpenJPA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: jdbc
    Affects Versions: 1.0.2

Specifying a default for VersionStrategy in persistence.xml has no effect when 
a version field is present in the entity class.

According the OpenJPA documentation the following property should override the 
default value of VersionStrategy and the specified RowChangeTimestampStrategy 
should be applied for all entity classes. 

 <property name="openjpa.jdbc.MappingDefaults" 
                
value="jpa(VersionStrategy=com.ibm.websphere.persistence.RowChangeTimestampStrategy)"
 />

JPA accepts this property but then it has no effect on Entity mappings if the 
version field is present.

import javax.persistence.*;
import org.apache.openjpa.persistence.jdbc.VersionStrategy;

@Entity
public class EntityA {
        @Id int id;
        String name;
        double amt;
        @Version java.sql.Timestamp lastUpdate;

For EntityA, the version strategy should be RowChangeTimestampStrategy. 
Instead, the NumberVersionStrategy is adopted. 
If the @Version is removed from EntityA, the version strategy becomes 
RowChangeTimestampStrategy.
