Hi George,
I can work on providing those tests and crafting a solution for the case
when the JPA provider is not packed with the target container. Will jump in
the IRC channel this week and discuss in more details with you.
I see that the JavaEEDefaultContainer implements methods that imply JTA
data source. No matter that SAP HCP is built on top of Tomcat, we have our
own persistence service, which provides JTA data source. So, generally you
are right that I should not extend that abstract class, but in this
concrete case with HANA Cloud Platform it is the right thing to do.
Cheers,
Ivan

Right, I think this makes sense. We might need to add more tests
under
these conditions. This area sure needs a bit of improvement.
It looks like SAPHanaCloudPlatformContainer shouldn't be extending
JavaEEDefaultContainer, afaik that is only meant to be extended by
implementations of JavaEE servers (TomEE, Wildfly, EAP, Weblogic,
GlassFish).

Hi George,
I was thinking of something general in the area of tying up somehow (not
coupling) the JPA containers and providers. The containers know very well
whether they have JPA support at all or, if they have, what is their native
provider (e.g. Hibernate for Wildfly). So IMHO whenever the user specifies
a container with a provider the setup command should do the following:
1) Validate whether this combination is possible at all (e.g. not sure
what will happen if we specify Wildfly with EclipseLink, at the moment it
fails)
2) If the current container does not have built-in support for JPA (i.e.
it is based on Tomcat, like SAP HCP) or it supports natively different JPA
provider, then add the listDependencies() content to the pom.xml in the
appropriate scope
Something like this. Not sure though how was this whole thing intended
to work: do we need to fully decouple providers and containers in the JPA
addon?
Cheers,
Ivan
