AS7 should pass the property "eclipselink.target-server = JBoss" to persistence providers, or at least EclipseLink ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: AS7-5063 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5063 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Enhancement Components: JPA / Hibernate Affects Versions: 7.1.1.Final Reporter: Craig Ringer Assignee: Scott Marlow Priority: Minor Labels: eclipselink, jpa Fix For: 8.0.0.Alpha1 For EclipseLink to properly identify the container and set up correct transaction integration, etc, it needs the property "eclipselink.target-server" to be set to "JBoss". There's an open issue asking EclipseLink to auto detect the container (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=383257) but right now, a simple solution to making EclipseLink work well on AS7 is for AS7 to pass that property to EclipseLink. That'll help prevent issues and confusion like this: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=365704 Users can set it as a system property right now as shown on bug 383257, but really it'd be best if JBoss passed it to the persistence unit during creation. Time permitting I'll give this a go.
