Now that I am done with the release, I have some time to work on the
JPA stuff. As it is important to have a good demo by JavaOne, I am
going to take over currently unassigned CAY-455 (mapping descriptor)
and CAY-456 (annotations loader). I won't be touching CAY-460 (class
enhancer) for now.

Bill, Jeff, let me know when you have an opportunity to work on any
of that - we can reassign these tasks again.

Subject: Fwd: [openejb-dev] OpenEJB 3 and Cayenne JPA
FYI: below is my email exchange with David Blevins on
integrating Cayenne provider with OpenEJB by JavaOne.
Jeff, Bill - I was wondering where are we on the class
enhancers and orm.xml?

Hi David,
Let's do it!
Currently a JPA EntityManager is a thin wrapper around
Cayenne so it
allows to use the JPA API, but underneath it only supports Cayenne
mapping. EJB QL queries are yet unsupported. Jeff Genender and Bill
Dudney are looking at class enhancers, annotations and the mapping.
I'll check on cayenne-dev list where we stand on that.
As far as container integration, we can start right away,
as provider
part is there. Here is provider M2 project info:
http://objectstyle.org/confluence/display/CAY/JPA+Development+Setup
I guess once we nail down the integration part, we can continue to
work in parallel and get in as many features as possible.

Hey Andrus,
What's the status of the Cayenne JPA stuff? Are there any parts
implementing JPA interfaces which are more or less usable at the
moment?
I'm completely insane of course, but I think if i work all
night and
day for the next few weeks I can have something for people to play
around with by JavaOne. You up for the challenge?
At the moment I'm poking at the start of some deployment code and
it's going quite well. By the weekend we should see some
magic there
and I'll be looking line up some more integration stuff,
then I'll be
working more on the 2.x container integration. So there is like a
week or two gap till I'd be looking for some JPA functionality to
integrate -- figured I'd shoot this off and see if you
might be able
to get something JPA wise in Cayenne by then.
