EclipseLink 2.7.0 and JPA API 2.2.0 - signature mismatch

Question

When running a project built by maven with the following dependencies:

        
            org.eclipse.persistence         


        

Answer 1

Obinna's answer is correct; I guess that there was an issue with eclipselink 2.7.x –as George indicated. I had a similar issue when upgrading eclipselink, but it was just wrong artefacts. The initially described issue seems to be a result of externally referencing javax.persistence level - it is definitely not necessary.

Proper maven configuration can be found in eclipselink wiki: https://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/Maven
