Sahoo,
With TopLink ans EclipseLink Java SE style applications can still
have access to dynamically woven classes. It really depends on the
startup. Many application servers deploy the PU on deployment of the
application. This process ensure the provider has the opportunity to
enhance the classes. Once enhanced within the application all Java SE
style access still uses the enhanced classes. Because Glassfish delays
deployment of the PU on application deployment there is no opportunity
for the provider to weave the classes.
