PK93444: ejbModule folder is not added to source folders when creating a EJB Web Service causing errors when generating JPA entities

Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Software, Version 7.5.4

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Using Rational Application Developer V7.5.3
  Generating Top Down JAX-WS EJB web service(WS) from WSDL followe
  d by adding JPA 1.0 Facet to resulting WS EJB project and Genera
  ting JPA Entities results in error:
  'This mapped class is not specified in persistence unit '{WebSer
  viceProjectName}'' on each entity mapped from the database.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• The root causes is that the EJB Web services project did not
  add the ejbModule directory to the class path. If you
  create a plain EJB project, the ejbModule is the source
  folder and added to the class path.  In this cases you have
  two source folders, the src and ejbModule folders.  Only the
  src folder is added to the class path.
  
  Because the ejbModule is not in the classpath, the JPA
  tooling can't find the persistence.xml and orm.xml files.
  This causes the error.
  

Problem conclusion

• Fix delivered in Rational Application Developer V7.5.4
  

Temporary fix
