JPA deployers in jboss-ejb3-embedded

[jaikiran]

jboss-ejb3-embedded uses its own copy of jpa-deployers-beans.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deployment xmlns="urn:jboss:bean-deployer:2.0">
 <bean name="DataSourceDependencyResolver" class="org.jboss.ejb3.embedded.resolvers.EmbeddedDataSourceDependencyResolver"/>

 <bean name="JavaEEModuleInformer" class="org.jboss.ejb3.embedded.javaee.SimpleJavaEEModuleInformer"/>

 <bean name="PersistenceUnitDependencyResolver" class="org.jboss.jpa.resolvers.DefaultPersistenceUnitDependencyResolver"/>

 <bean name="PersistenceParsingDeployer" class="org.jboss.jpa.deployers.PersistenceParsingDeployer"/>

 <bean name="PersistenceDeployer" class="org.jboss.jpa.deployers.PersistenceDeployer"/>
 <bean name="PersistenceUnitDeployer" class="org.jboss.jpa.deployers.PersistenceUnitDeployer">
 <property name="defaultPersistenceProperties">
 <map keyClass="java.lang.String" valueClass="java.lang.String">
 <entry>
 <key>hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class</key>
 <value>org.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup</value>
 </entry>
 </map>
 </property>
 </bean>
</deployment>

While working on https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/EJBTHREE-1716 i had to upgrade the version of jboss-ejb3-core to 1.0.0 in the pom.xml dependency of embedded. This version of ejb3-core expects the PersistenceUnitDependencyResolver to have a search strategy and has various different impls. The ejb3-core by default uses:

<bean name="PersistenceUnitDependencyResolver" class="org.jboss.jpa.resolvers.DynamicPersistenceUnitDependencyResolver"/>

Which one do we want to use in the ejb3-embedded? Right now i have let it remain at
DefaultPersistenceUnitDependencyResolver with a SpecCompliantSearchStrategy:

<bean name="SpecCompliantSearchStrategy" class="org.jboss.jpa.resolvers.strategy.SpecCompliantSearchStrategy"/>

 <!-- DefaultPersistenceUnitDependencyResolver for spec compliant resolving. Uses SpecCompliantSearchStrategy-->
 <bean name="PersistenceUnitDependencyResolver" class="org.jboss.jpa.resolvers.DefaultPersistenceUnitDependencyResolver"/>

Is this OK? Or should ejb3-embedded too use the dynamic resolver?

The dynamic resolver will require JMX to work, and that's not available in ejb3-embeddable.
