Scan for entities in persistence root when using unmanaged JPA persistence unit ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-10730 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-10730 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Enhancement Components: JPA / Hibernate Affects Versions: 13.0.0.Final Reporter: Stephen Fikes Assignee: Scott Marlow Attachments: testcase.zip Per the [JPA specification|http://download.oracle.com/otn-pub/jcp/persistence-2_2-mrel...], entities in the root should not need to be explicitly specified (they should be automatically discovered). This works in a managed scenario (using injected entity manager) but doesn't work in an un-managed case (entity manager factory / entity manager created explicitly in application code) when using the same persistence unit. Also attempted to work around the limitation by declaring an explicit scanner ({{hibernate.archive.scanner=org.jboss.as.jpa.hibernate5.HibernateArchiveScanner}}) but this requires disabling managed JPA for the unit ({{jboss.as.jpa.managed=false}}) so a single unit cannot be used in both managed and un-managed scenarios.
