Hi Bernd,

There is no troubles here, as these class are inherited by JPA
implementation, and thus do not need to define zero argument constructor
here.

The master branch is compiled on each commits. Moreover, unit tests and
deployment tests are successful for JPA project.

I think you might either disable the error, or pass it as a warning
(eclipse configuration do not report this on my computer).

You can propose your modification by adding a JIRA ticket for this and
opening a pull request on github
https://github.com/apache/james-project/ (or upload the patch on jira).
It will then be reviewed.

Regards,

Benoit
