Hi Lee,
You should be able to use a sniffer/deployer pair to wire up new
deployer that can handle stuff from new archive. You should aim to
reuse code from PersistenceUnitLoade and to do that you will need to
construct PersistenceUnitDescriptor for your pu and provide and impl of
ProviderContainerContractInfo.
