addTransformer
void addTransformer(ClassTransformer transformer)
- Add a transformer supplied by the provider that will be called for every
 new class definition or class redefinition that gets loaded by
 the loader returned by the 
getClassLoader() method. The
 transformer has no effect on the result returned by the
 getNewTempClassLoader() method. Classes are
 only transformed once within the same classloading scope, regardless of
 how many persistence units they may be a part of.
- Parameters:
 transformer - A provider-supplied transformer that the Container
                    invokes at class-(re)definition time
 
 
getNewTempClassLoader
java.lang.ClassLoader getNewTempClassLoader()
- Return a new instance of a ClassLoader that the provider
 may use to temporarily load any classes, resources, or
 open URLs. The scope and classpath of this loader is
 exactly the same as that of the loader returned by
 
getClassLoader(). None of the classes loaded
 by this class loader will be visible to application
 components. The provider may only use this ClassLoader
 within the scope of the PersistenceProvider.createContainerEntityManagerFactory(javax.persistence.spi.PersistenceUnitInfo, java.util.Map)
 call.
- Returns:
 - Temporary ClassLoader with same visibility as current
 loader
