[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (EJB-153) Allow to configure entity manager with specific persistence.xml

[Emmanuel Bernard (JIRA)]

    [ http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/EJB-153?page=comments#action_24194 ] 

Emmanuel Bernard commented on EJB-153:
--------------------------------------

The drawback is that META-INF/persistence.xml allow us to find the jar file address so that we scan it. I could externalize that to get a PersistenceMetadata out of something but is it gonna be easier or more complex for you than a Classloader implementation that does the trick. Plus the classloader is portable across implementations

> in tools context it would be beneficial to configure the entitymanager with a specific persistence.xml to avoid having to create a hacky custom classloader that places the custom one in META-INF/persistence.xml.
> Emmanuel mentioned something about providing a custom strategy for this.
