Persisting Inner classes

[Arun Nagarajan <an...@in.ibm.com>]

Hi,
        I am using OpenJPA for persistence. The java classes are generated 
from XML Schema using XML beans technology. The java types to be persisted 
are being generated as inner classes by XML Beans. After writing the 
mapping information in the form of xml to map those persistable classes to 
DB, I ran the code to persist the java types.

I got the following error.

the class "com.ibm.retail.Product.InnerProduct" listed in the 
openjpa.MetaDataFactory configuration property could not be loaded; 
ignoring

Can you please let me know whether OpenJPA supports persisting inner 
class. My inner class is a static inner class.

Thanks and Regards,
arun...

Hi,

You should be able to work with static inner classes. I think that you  
might need to use $ notation for the last separator, though:

     com.ibm.retail.Product$InnerProduct
