Better JPA, Better JAXB, and Better Annotations Processing With Java SE 6

Off late released Java SE (Standard Edition) 6 brings greater convenience and greater usability to several portions of the Java programming language and platform. In particular, Java SE 6 makes it easier for Java developers to apply JAXB (Java Architecture for XML Binding) and annotations processing to their development efforts, including Java Persistence API (JPA). In this paper, the users will learn how to take advantage of Java SE 6 support for JAXB and annotations processing to make deployment of JPA-based applications easier, especially for application deployers who may lack familiarity with the underlying Java code. Along the way, a few additional new Java SE 6 features will be demonstrated as well.
