Description Shaun Smith CLA 2009-11-24 16:32:10 EST 
As per the summary, if you "Synchronize Class List" only the Entities in the current JPA project are included.  Entities in projects that are in the "Plug-in Dependencies" library of the current project are not included.

Adding this functionality would likely require user prompting on the sync action to determine whether the user wants to search outside of the project or not.  Searching outside of the project could result in a long wait, depending on the size of the dependent projects and JAR's (assuming we would also want to interrogate JAR files in and outside of the project).

Prompt could offer 3 choices:

(quick mock-up)
------

Synchronizing the persistence.xml could take several minutes depending on the size of your project(s).  Please select an option below:

- Workspace sync (Slower)
- Project Sync (Quicker)
- Cancel

(Remember this setting and don't ask me again)

------

Another option would be to have different context menu actions for the Workspace and Project syncs.
