Taking TOTD #121 forward, this blog explains how to create a JPA Persistence Unit for a MySQL sample database and package it as a library. This JAR file can then be easily included in other web applications.

Lets get started!

Configure GlassFish for using the MySQL sample database (sakila) as described in TOTD #121.

Add the GlassFish instance in NetBeans IDE using "Services" panel.

Create JPA entities using NetBeans IDE.

Create a Java class library:

EclipseLink JPA replaces TopLink Essentials as the JPA implementation in GlassFish v3. One of the benefits of using EclipseLink is that it provides efficient pagination support for the MySQL database by generating native SQL statements such as "SELECT ... FROM <table> LIMIT <offset>, <rowcount>".

The MySQL LIMIT clause definition says:

The LIMIT clause can be used to constrain the number of rows returned by the SELECT statement. LIMIT takes one or two numeric arguments, which must both be non-negative integer constants
