Emmanuel Bernard commented on ANN-712:
--------------------------------------
If you look at the history of ejb3-persistence and javax.persistence, they have not always
been aligned. And yes there were TCK issues, ask Shelly.
Think about it, what will we do the minute we start implementing JPA 2? Change the
dependency from javax.persistence to org.hibernate then move back once
java.net catches
up? What if a TCK bug is blocking us, should we wait for weeks for
java.net to catch up as
well?
Yes in a perfect pink world full of should have would have, we would use this package. But
reality is different.
Maven pom.xml should (in time) depend on
javax.persistence:persistence-api instead of org.hibernate:ejb3-persistence

Key: ANN-712
URL:
http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/ANN-712
Project: Hibernate Annotations
Issue Type: Task
Affects Versions: 3.3.1.GA
Reporter: Geoffrey De Smet
Priority: Minor
Now it's possible to get the same classes (for example javax.persistence.Entity)
twice in the classpath:
- one from persistence-api-1.0.jar
- and another from ejb3-persistence-1.0.1.GA.jar.
Mix that with classloaders and you get bugs like A extends B but an A is not instance of
B (because B.class is loaded twice from different jars). Otherwise you can get this too,
but if the groupId:artifactId match, maven deals with it.
In theory, replace:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
<artifactId>ejb3-persistence</artifactId>
<version>1.0.1.GA</version>
</dependency>
with:
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.persistence</groupId>
<artifactId>persistence-api</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version> <!-- FIXME -->
</dependency>
It looks like org.hibernate:ejb3-persistence is just a copy of
javax.persistence:persistence-api, but with a hot-fix applied to it:
probably because javax.persistence:persistence-api:1.0.1 isn't deployed to the
central repo yet.
So the JCP might need to be poked to put javax.persistence:persistence-api:1.0.1 on the
central repo :) Which is probably not an easy thing to do...
