Hello,

I m new to EJB so this may sound naive. I see that the only required tag in persistence.xml is persistence unit with name and all others are optional. My question is, in such a case is persistence.xml file required? Should every project using JPA must have a persistence.xml?

persistence.xml is required for setting a persistence unit on JPA.
