Interface EntityManagerFactoryBuilder


public interface EntityManagerFactoryBuilder

This service interface offers JPA clients the ability to create instances of EntityManagerFactory for a given named persistence unit. A service instance will be created for each named persistence unit and can be filtered by comparing the value of the osgi.unit.name property containing the persistence unit name. This service is used specifically when the caller wants to pass in factory-scoped properties as arguments. If no properties are being used in the creation of the EntityManagerFactory then the basic EntityManagerFactory service should be used.


Field Summary
static java.lang.String JPA_UNIT_NAME
          The name of the persistence unit.
static java.lang.String JPA_UNIT_PROVIDER
          The class name of the provider that registered the service and implements the JPA javax.persistence.PersistenceProvider interface.
static java.lang.String JPA_UNIT_VERSION
          The version of the persistence unit bundle.
