In this case we could use the existing Hibernate profile. The JPA-annotations could be realized as a feature with the new feature configuration capabilities of oAW 4.2. * On the other hand we are thinking about a JPA-Cartridge. In this case a new JPA-profile is needed. The benefit is, that Hibernate would be, as you say, only one possible implementation.This solution is more complex as the first solution. Also an adapter for the existing Hibernate Cartridge is needed. And a mechanism for adding Hibernate (or Toplink, or ...) specific properties to the JPA Profile is needed. What is the opinion of the users? What is needed? And who wants to help to realize this issues :-) Any comment is desired. -- Darius -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/JPA-Annotations-and-the-Hibernate-Cartridge-tf4882218s17564.html#a13992405 Sent from the Fornax-Platform mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
