We discovered a strange behavior about the usage of Calendar and I was
wondering if this was expected :

There is a Calendar field in one of our JPA objects. If I try to use
this field through its getter method, the instance I got back is the
open jpa implementation of the Calendar interface, not Sun

try to call "add" on this implementation which openjpa implementation
doesn't support. We obviously do not want t use openjpa implementation
of the Calendar in our code.

I was wondering if it is the right behavior ? Shouldn't openjpa give
java.util.Calendar back when it unserializes the Calendar field ?
