openjpa.RuntimeUnenhancedClasses & Java6

Hello,

a while ago we discussed the (still undocumented; see
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-650 !)
openjpa.RuntimeUnenhancedClasses configuration in this list.

A question: On Java6, according to
http://openjpa.apache.org/builds/lat...ide_pc_enhance
..html#ref_guide_pc_enhance_unenhanced_types, "OpenJPA will attempt to
dynamically register a ClassTransformer that will redefine your
persistent classes on the fly to track access to persistent data"
without specifying a javaagent. However, with
openjpa.RuntimeUnenhancedClasses=unsupported it still says
"org.apache.openjpa.persistence.ArgumentExcept ion: This configuration
disallows runtime optimization, but the following listed types were not
enhanced at build time or at class load time with a javaagent: ..." -
isn't this inconsistent / wrong?

It would be useful to have a possibility / configuration option which
PREVENTS users from running OpenJPA with that stupid (useless) "runtime
enhancement", and makes them specify the javaagent under Java5 (that's
what openjpa.RuntimeUnenhancedClasses=unsupported does, works well), but
which when you're running under Java6 does not abort and uses that
dynamic ClassTransformer. For now I'm doing if
(System.getProperty("java.version").startsWith("1. 5")) {
p.setProperty("openjpa.RuntimeUnenhancedClasses", "unsupported"); } and
that works ;-), but IMHO it would make sense to extend the
RuntimeUnenhancedClasses related check inside OpenJPA with something
like this? JIRA?

Thanks & Regards,
Michael
