So... trying to wrap my head around this topic a bit more.
Can one of you fellas clarify for me whether or not an eclipse plugin
exists out there that enhances classes for you? Looking around the web
a bit produced the following, which sort of leaves it hanging.

Thanks in advance... Bryan

Bryan-
You are correct: OpenJPA does require enhancement of classes. This
allows us to be much faster and more efficient for many operations
than a purely reflection-based system can be.

Quick question for the folks more in the know than me. Reading this
(http://people.apache.org/~mprudhom/openjpa/site/openjpa-project/manual/ref_guide_pc_enhance.html#ref_guide_pc_enhance_runtime_container),
it seems like classes must be enhanced (either at build time or
runtime) unless being deployed to a compliant EJB3 container, in
which case that's part of the container's job.
I just wanted to verify that I understand this correctly, and
there's not some way to avoid having to enhance these things that I
don't know about. I ask because you don't have to perform any kind
of enhancement step in your build process when using Hibernate.
I wouldn't be surprised if I'm missing something here, so if I said
something stupid, please be gentle.
Thanks...
