Yup. > And for 1.5, it's the entire annotation processor. Well, all the javax.persistence stuff is 1.5, so all the annotation processing etc. lives safely in 1.5-land. It's just the core OpenJPA modules (which are useable in 1.3) that need special handling for 1.4- and 1.5-specific classes. -Patrick _______________________________________________________________________ Notice: This email message, together with any attachments, may contain information of BEA Systems, Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliated entities, that may be confidential, proprietary, copyrighted and/or legally privileged, and is intended solely for the use of the individual or entity named in this message.
