Not speaking for Tom but we wanted a 'better' name for the public PersistenceProvider class that would be referenced by users. Think of it as a simple public wrapper.

  Hi Tom,

  What is the use of oracle.toplink.essentials.PersistenceProvider.class which is just an empty class as shown below:

  package oracle.toplink.essentials;

  import oracle.toplink.essentials.ejb.cmp3.EntityManagerFactoryProvider;

  /**
   * This is the TopLink EJB 3.0 provider
   */
  public class PersistenceProvider extends EntityManagerFactoryProvider {

  }

  We in GlassFish use oracle.toplink.essentials.ejb.cmp3.EntityManagerFactoryProvider as the persistence provider. Is there a potential mismatch here?

  Thanks,
  Sahoo
