In addition, consider using dynamic weaving to weave in Java environments where you cannot configure an agent.
 
In addition, consider using dynamic weaving to weave in Java environments where you cannot configure an agent.
  
Prior to weaving, you must configure your persistence unit to be understood by EclipseLink. There are two basic configurations:

==Prerequisite: Persistence Unit Packaging==
 +
Prior to weaving, you must package your persistence unit in either of the following configurations:  
  
 
* JAR file, as specified in the JPA 2.0 specification.{{EclipseLink_Spec

==Step 1: Execute the Static Weaver==

1. Use the <tt>weave</tt> ant task, as follows:

<li> Configure the <tt>weave</tt> Ant task in your build script, as this example shows. The [[#Table 19-31|EclipseLink weave Ant Task Attributes]] table lists the attributes of this task.<br>

Configuring Static Weaving

Use this option to weave all applicable class files at build time so that you can deliver pre-woven class files. Consider this option to weave all applicable class files at build time so that you can deliver prewoven class files. By doing so, you can improve application performance by eliminating the runtime weaving step required by dynamic weaving (see Configuring Dynamic Weaving).

In addition, consider using dynamic weaving to weave in Java environments where you cannot configure an agent.

Prerequisite: Persistence Unit Packaging

Prior to weaving, you must package your persistence unit in either of the following configurations:

  • JAR file, as specified in the JPA 2.0 specification.
Elug javaspec icon.gif

For more information, see Section 11.1.18 "Persistence Unit Packaging" in the JPA Specification.

  • Exploded directory structure

In both cases, the requirements are:

  • Classes are stored at the base in directories based on their package structure
  • A META-INF directory that contains the persistence.xml file. Note: Using the persistenceunitinfo setting below, you can avoid this requirement.

For example, when using a JAR file, mypersitenceunit.jar could contain the following:

  • mypackage/MyEntity1.class
  • mypackage/MyEntity2.class
  • mypackage2/MyEntity3.class
  • META-INF/persistence.xml

For example, If your base directory was c:/classes, the exploded directory structure would look as follows:

  • c:/classes/mypackage/MyEntity1.class
  • c:/classes/mypackage/MyEntity2.class
  • c:/classes/mypackage2/MyEntity3.class
  • c:/classes/META-INF/persistence.xml

Step 1: Execute the Static Weaver

Execute the static static weaver in one of the following ways:

1. Use the weave ant task, as follows:

  • Configure the weave Ant task in your build script, as this example shows. The EclipseLink weave Ant Task Attributes table lists the attributes of this task.
    EclipseLink weave Ant Task
    <target name="define.task" description="New task definition for EclipseLink static weaving"/>
    
        <taskdef name="weave" classname="org.eclipse.persistence.tools.weaving.jpa.StaticWeaveAntTask"/>
    </target>
    <target name="weaving" description="perform weaving" depends="define.task">
        <weave  source="c:\myjar.jar"
                target="c:\wovenmyjar.jar"
                persistenceinfo="c:\myjar-containing-persistenceinfo.jar">
            <classpath>
                <pathelement path="c:\myjar-dependent.jar"/>
            </classpath>
    
        </weave>
    </target>
    


    EclipseLink weave Ant Task Attributes

    Attribute Description Default Required or Optional

    source

    Specifies the location of the Java source files to weave: either a directory or a JAR file.

    If the persistence.xml file is not in a META-INF directory at this location, you must specify the location of the persistence.xml using the persistenceinfo attribute.


    Required

    target

    Specifies the output location: either a directory or a JAR file.


    Required

    persistenceinfo

    Specifies the location of the persistence.xml file if it is not in the same location as the source. Note: persistence.xml should be put in a directory called META-INF at this location


    Optional

    log

    Specifies a logging file.

    See Logging.

    Optional

    loglevel

    Specifies the amount and detail of log output.

    Valid java.util.logging.Level values are the following:

    • OFF
    • SEVERE
    • WARNING
    • INFO
    • CONFIG
    • FINE
    • FINER
    • FINEST

    For more information, see Logging.

    Level.OFF

    Optional



    Note: If source and target point to the same location and, if the source is a directory (not a JAR file), EclipseLink will weave in place. If source and target point to different locations, or if the source is a JAR file (as the EclipseLink weave Ant Task example shows), EclipseLink cannot weave in place.


  • Configure the weave task with an appropriate <classpath> element, as the EclipseLink weave Ant Task example shows, so that EclipseLink can load all required source classes.
  • Execute the Ant task using the command line that this example shows.
    In this example, the weave Ant task is in the build.xml file:
    EclipseLink weave Ant Task Command Line
    ant -lib C:\eclipselink.jar -f build.xml weave
    

    Note: You must specify the eclipselink.jar file (the JAR that contains the EclipseLink weave Ant task) using the Ant command line -lib option instead of using the taskdef attribute classpath.


</li>

  • Use the command line as follows:

    java org.eclipse.persistence.tools.weaving.jpa.StaticWeave [arguments] <source> <target>


    The following example shows how to use the StaticWeave class on Windows systems. The EclipseLink StaticWeave Class Command Line Arguments table lists the arguments of this class.
    Executing StaticWeave on the Command Line

    java org.eclipse.persistence.tools.weaving.jpa.StaticWeave  -persistenceinfo c:\myjar-containing-persistencexml.jar 
    -classpath c:\classpath1;c:\classpath2 c:\myjar-source.jar c:\myjar-target.jar
    


    EclipseLink StaticWeave Class Command Line Arguments

    Argument Description Default Required or Optional

    -persistenceinfo

    Specifies the location of the persistence.xml file if it is not at the same location as the source (see -classpath) Note: EclipseLink will look in a META-INF directory at that location for persistence.xml.


    Optional

    -classpath

    Specifies the location of the Java source files to weave: either a directory or a JAR file. For Windows systems, use delimiter " ; ", and for Unix, use delimiter " : ".

    If the persistence.xml file is not in this location, you must specify the location of the persistence.xml using the -persistenceinfo attribute.


    Required

    -log

    Specifies a logging file.

    See Logging.

    Optional

    -loglevel

    Specifies the amount and detail of log output.

    Valid java.util.logging.Level values are as follows:

    • OFF
    • SEVERE
    • WARNING
    • INFO
    • CONFIG
    • FINE
    • FINER
    • FINEST

    For more information, see Logging.

    Level.OFF

    Optional

    <source>

    Specifies the location of the Java source files to weave: either a directory or a JAR file.

    If the persistence.xml file is not in this location, you must specify the location of the persistence.xml using the -persistenceinfo attribute.


    Required

    <target>

    Specifies the output location: either a directory or a JAR file.


    Required



    Note: If <source> and <target> point to the same location and if the <source> is a directory (not a JAR file), EclipseLink will weave in place. If <source> and <target> point to different locations, or if the source is a JAR file (as the Executing StaticWeave on the Command Line example shows), EclipseLink cannot weave in place.


  • </ol>

    </li>

  • Configure your persistence.xml file with a eclipselink.weaving extension set to static, as this example shows:
    Setting eclipselink.weaving in the persistence.xml File
    <persistence>
        <persistence-unit name="HumanResources">
            <class>com.acme.Employee</class>
            ...
            <properties>
    
                <property
                    name="eclipselink.weaving"
                    value="static"
                >
            </properties>
        </persistence-unit>
    </persistence>
