How easy is it to set up JBoss Seam to run on GlassFish with JPA instead of Hibernate?

Question

Question pretty much says it all - I'm interested to find out about how to set up JBoss Seam on a GlassFish (v3 prelude) application server rather than JBoss. Also, I prefer JPA over Hibernate for persistance but it looks as though Seam has dependencies on Hibernate (or at least parts of it), has anyone got any experience with a stack like this?

Answer 1

Seam does not require Hibernate, and the recent 2.x releases are tested and documented to work on other application servers.

We have a Seam application that uses JPA, which was no problem to set-up. I do not use GlassFish, but the Seam manual has a section on deploying the JPA example on GlassFish, which sounds like what you need.
