I have a JPA-Project, which I'm trying to update to JPA 2.2.0 and EclipseLink 5.7.1 since I ran into bug 429992 of EclipseLink. With the new versions in place, I'm not able to execute my application anymore – EclipseLink throws an exception similar to the following (Short variant from my example below):
[EL Warning]: metamodel: 2018-06-20 22:38:14.1--Thread(Thread[main,5,main])--The collection of metamodel types is empty. Model classes may not have been found during entity search for Java SE and some Java EE container managed persistence units. Please verify that your entity classes are referenced in persistence.xml using either <class> elements or a global <exclude-unlisted-classes>false</exclude-unlisted-classes> element
[...]
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Object: Artifact@17d919b6 is not a known Entity type.
at org.eclipse.persistence.internal.sessions.UnitOfWorkImpl.registerNewObjectForPersist(UnitOfWorkImpl.java:4324)
at org.eclipse.persistence.internal.jpa.EntityManagerImpl.persist(EntityManagerImpl.java:593)
at Main.main(Main.java:12)
Before the update, everything worked fine (besides the aforementioned bug), and also if I checkout an earlier commit, there are no problems.
I have reproduced this behaviour with the minimal setup attached below.
The project is compiled using Java SE 10, as IDE I'm using Eclipse, but in my project properties, I only have the option to select "Generic 2.1" as JPA-Platform. May this be an problem?
Are you able to reproduce this error?
As far as I can see, the Entity-class is listed in the persistence.xml and also annotated with @Entity, but not loaded by EclipseLink. Cleaning the project or even creating a new one does not solve the problem.
Do you have an idea, what my mistake might be? Am I missing any fundamental point about the usage of JPA 2.2/EclipseLink 2.7.1?
Thank you for any hints or comments!
