Sounds like an interesting idea to me. It would allow me to import any packages I need in order to properly configure the entity manager factory.
My original idea was that OpenJPA should use the class loader for the bundle that contained the persistence.xml. That way I could make sure that bundle imported anything needed. Right now, it seems like OpenJPA does not try that class loader (although it tries a bunch of other class loaders). /Bengt 2012/6/28 Jim Talbut <jtal...@spudsoft.co.uk> > Hi, > > Could the Auditor (or an AuditorFactory) be set via some property on the > entityManagerFactory? > If it could it would remove any need for class loading from this part of > OpenJPA, because it puts the responsibility on the user to construct it how > they want. > It would also let them set it to a fully formed object, with access to any > other objects they have - the property setting supported within > persistence.xml is rather limited compared to what could be done with > Spring/Blueprint. > > At the moment the only way I can see of passing information from the > outside world to OpenJPA is via the jpaProperties - which is limited to > strings. > It may be that to provide this feature we'd need some kind of > global/singleton/static OpenJPA world object to use for passing > non-string-stuff into OpenJPA. > > Jim > > > On 28/06/2012 02:10, Pinaki Poddar wrote: > >> Kevin, >> I may have done something non-kosher with openjpa.Auditor property.
