[eclipselink-users] Problems with single character entity class names

[Mike Traum <Mike.Traum@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
I have test projects which use the following entites: A->B->C (where -> 
represents a bidirectional OneToMany). This worked in eclipselink 1.1.2. 
After upgrading to eclipselink 1.2, I get the following exception when 
starting up:
Internal Exception: javax.persistence.PersistenceException: Exception 
[EclipseLink-28018] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 
1.2.0.v20091016-r5565): 
org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.EntityManagerSetupException
Exception Description: Predeployment of PersistenceUnit [testjparemove] 
failed.
Internal Exception: Exception [EclipseLink-7214] (Eclipse Persistence 
Services - 1.2.0.v20091016-r5565): 
org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.ValidationException
Exception Description: The target entity of the relationship attribute 
[children] on the class [class A] cannot be determined.  When not using 
generics, ensure the target entity is defined on the relationship mapping.
   at 
org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.PersistenceUnitLoadingException.exceptionSearchingForPersistenceResources(PersistenceUnitLoadingException.java:123)
...

Generics are being used. If I go ahead and apply the targetEntity to the 
OneToMany, I get the following exception:
Internal Exception: Exception [EclipseLink-7250] (Eclipse Persistence 
Services - 1.2.0.v20091016-r5565): 
org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.ValidationException
Exception Description: [class A] uses a non-entity [class byte] as 
target entity in the relationship attribute [method getChildren].
   at 
org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.PersistenceUnitLoadingException.exceptionSearchingForPersistenceResources(PersistenceUnitLoadingException.java:123)
...

If I rename my classes to be more than one character, as in 
Atest->Btest->Ctest, no problems exist. Sounds like a bug, no?

thanks,
mike
