§JPA Migration

§Removed Deprecated Methods

The following deprecated methods have been removed in Play 2.6.

play.db.jpa.JPA.jpaApi
play.db.jpa.JPA.em(key)
play.db.jpa.JPA.bindForAsync(em)
play.db.jpa.JPA.withTransaction

Please use a JPAApi injected instance as specified in Using play.db.jpa.JPAApi.

§Deprecated JPA Class

As of 2.6.1, the play.db.jpa.JPA class has been deprecated, as it uses global state under the hood. The deprecation was mistakenly left out of 2.6.0.

Please use a JPAApi injected instance as specified in Using play.db.jpa.JPAApi.

§Added Async Warning

Added the following to JavaJPA:

Using JPA directly in an Action will limit your ability to use Play asynchronously. Consider arranging your code so that all access to to JPA is wrapped in a custom execution context, and returns java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage to Play.
