Pinaki Poddar commented on OPENJPA-1532:
----------------------------------------

Whether <shared-cache-mode> activates data cache or not -- is not the issue I 
have raised. In fact I tend to agree that shared-cache-mode should activate 
Data Cache. My concern is *how* it is to be done.doing it in a case-by-case 
basis is weaker design construct. A design to support co-dependent 
configuration should be followed.   
                
> Should the <shared-cache-mode> element in a persistence unit definition 
> automatically turn on the data cache?

> The JPA 2.0 spec introduces a new persistence unit definition element, 
> <shared-cache-mode>, which accepts NONE, ALL, ENABLE_SELECTIVE, and 
> DISABLE_SELECTIVE.  The JPA 2.0 spec section 3.7.1 documents the behavior of 
> each of those modes.
> What I am curious about is if the use of <shared-cache-mode> should 
> implicitly enable OpenJPA's data cache plugin.  Currently, the above element 
> is completely ignored if the persistence unit is missing the properties: 
> openjpa.DataCache=true and openjpa.RemoteCommitProvider=sjvm (because by 
> default, OpenJPA disables data caching).  My interpretation of the spec 
> suggests that <shared-cache-mode> is not only a platform-independent method 
> of instructing the data cache which entities are eligible for admittance to 
> the data cache, but it is also a switch providing a platform-independent 
> method of both turning the data cache on or off (since whether the cache is 
> enabled by default is platform-specific).  Otherwise, why have a NONE value, 
> if it was not intended to be a platform independent means of turning the data 
> cache off?
