[jira] [Commented] (OPENJPA-2234) EntityManager instance creation needs TX activity

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-2234?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13455059#comment-13455059 ] 

Oliver Gierke commented on OPENJPA-2234:
----------------------------------------

I didn't suspect OpenJPA to violate the spec. All I was stumbling above was that apparently the EntityManagerFactory bootstrap code tries to access a TransactionManager which effectively can't be in place at that time as usually the Txmanager works with the EntityManagerFactory in turn. At least OpenJPA behaves very different compared to other JPA providers and I wondered why this early TxManager lookup is required.

> While working with Spring Data, we came across a potential bug in OpenJPA.
> The bug was provoked by a query lookup module in Spring Data JPA, but it has its roots in AbstractBrokerFactory class, which seems to require transaction existence in order to create EntityManager (which is contrary to JPA spec).
> I have already been in touch with Spring Data JPA author (where I filed a bug against Spring Data JPA) who actually pointed me to file a bug here.
> I have extensively documented my findings on this thread (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10688040/spring-data-jpa-fails-to-invoke-jtatransactionmanager), so I'll rather post the link, instead of repeating the whole thing here.
> All that being said, I am not entirely sure what actually happened and am no authority whatsoever on JPA spec.
