Interface JpaPlatformVariation

public interface JpaPlatformVariation

A JpaPlatform contains a JpaPlatformVariation. This is used for various jpa spec items that are either optional or only supported by certain version of the spec. Each platform implementation must determine if it supports these things. Provisional API: This interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

Since:

2.3

Version:

2.3
