NPE when no metadata is defined for a persistent class
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: OPENJPA-819
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENJPA-819
             Project: OpenJPA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: kernel
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Dianne Richards
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.0.0


The persistent class was specified in the persistence.xml under <class>, but persistence metadata was not specified for the class, either through annotation or the orm.xml. A NPE was thrown. We need a better message.

This issue was reported in the user forum by post http://n2.nabble.com/NullPointerException-when-calling-createEntityManager-on--EntityManagerFactory-td1621881.html
