[jira] Created: (OPENJPA-1693) Type introspection can upgrade to Java 5 or greater to rid of reflection

Type introspection can upgrade to Java 5 or greater to rid of reflection
------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: OPENJPA-1693
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-1693
             Project: OpenJPA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: kernel
            Reporter: Pinaki Poddar
            Assignee: Pinaki Poddar
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.1.0


OpenJPA type introspection is flexible to cope with Java versions as new type facilities had been introduced. However the code has to use full of reflection to use ParameterizedType etc. 
As we have now deprecated support for JRE 4 -- should we get rid of reflection?

-----------------------------------------

+1 - get rid of it.

Delegating* classes are also heavy "reflectized".
