Patrick Linskey commented on OPENJPA-463:
-----------------------------------------
It's unclear to me that running OpenJPAVersion is what we want to happen when
running 'java -jar openjpa.jar'. There are other possibilities also: we could
run the enhancer, or the mappingtool, or the schematool, or some
as-yet-designed thing.
Maybe if we did 'java -jar openjpa.jar --version', we should output the
version. This could be expanded upon; 'java -jar openjpa.jar enhance' could run
the PCEnhancer.
> OpenJPA jar should self-describe its build information

> Project: OpenJPA
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: build / infrastructure
> Reporter: Pinaki Poddar
> Priority: Minor
>
> End user should be able to do:
> $ java -jar /path/to/openjpa.jar
> To get a self-description of OpenJPA
> Currently, org.apache.openjpa.conf.OpenJPAVersion does output useful
> information.
> This enhancement request is to mark org.apache.openjpa.conf.OpenJPAVersion as
> the Main-Class in manifest.
