Known Issues
OSGi and JPA
In order to use EclipseLink 2.1 OSGi, you must use the org.eclipse.persistence.jpa included with this release. This bundle provides support for Gemini, the reference implementation for the OSGI Java EE integration specification.
Resolved Issues
In addition to the features highlighted in the New and Noteworthy section this release also includes a substantial number of bug fixes and enhancement requests.
Property Name Generation from Introspector.decapitalize
The decapitalize method will now leave the property name in uppercase if the first and second characters are uppercase. EclipseLink will use the property name as ID, as detailed in the specification.
Note that this may require a change in some JPQL. For example, if previously you had a method with an annotation such as getCCustomers that would have properties named cCustomers, you will now have Customers.
Retention Policy
The EclipseLink 2.1 (Helios) release will remain available for download from the primary download page until the next release is shipped. At that point it will be moved to the previous releases where it remain for a minimum period of 2 years before becoming available for archival.
