Question

import javax.persistence.criteria.CriteriaBuilder;
import javax.persistence.criteria.CriteriaQuery;
import javax.persistence.criteria.Root;

I've created a JPA project where I try to user the above classes but I'm unable to find what jar I'm missing for them. Please guide me.

Answer 1

Try the Geronimo specs JPA2 jar http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/pub/mirrors/maven2/org/apache/geronimo/specs/geronimo-jpa_2.0_spec/1.0-PFD2/ There is still no official JPA2.jar

Answer 3

EclipseLink provides the JPA 2.0 Reference Implementation which is officially out since Java EE 6 is out. You'll find these classes in the jars bundled in eclipselink-2.0.0.v20091127-r5931.zip. If you are looking for a Maven repo, have a look at this page.
