Just curious, Has there been any testing with Java 2 Security enabled and OpenJPA? I'm hitting a semi-intermittent problem (it doesn't seem to show up on all machines) which results in an NPE coming out of the javax.persistence.Persistence.createEntityManager method. I know we have no control over this specific piece of code, but I'm wondering whether we need some doPriv blocks elsewhere in the code path. I reviewed the JIRA Issues and didn't see anything related to this. Before I go further, I thought I would check to see if there's been any other experiences with Java 2 Security. Thanks.
