Fail fast when a pojo is marked with @org.hibernate.annotations.Entity instead of @javax.persistence.Entity and is <class> in persistence.xml --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: ANN-740 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/ANN-740 Project: Hibernate Annotations Issue Type: Improvement Components: binder Affects Versions: 3.3.1.GA Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet Priority: Minor When a pojo is annotatedwith @org.hibernate.annotations.Entity, but not with @javax.persistence.Entity and it's in the persistence.xml as such: <class>me.MyPojo</class> <exclude-unlisted-classes>true</exclude-unlisted-classes> it shouldn't quietly ignore that MyPojo class, but instead fail fast with an exception "Class me.MyPojo is defined in persistence.xml but isn't an @javax.persistence.Entity". I just started with Seam and JBoss AS and I made that mistake and it took me a couple of days to track this down (I know, it looks so simple and so obvious)... because I always figured JBoss classloading was to blame (while it wasn't). It's actually one of the reasons I threw JBoss AS out and started using Jetty and Tomcat (which is working fine now). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/secure/Administrators.... - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
