Hibernate 4.1.3 provides the new property prefer_sequence_per_entity (see https://hibernate.onjira.com/browse/HHH-6790 and the Hibernate class org.hibernate.id.enhanced.SequenceStyleGenerator).
Can this property be activated in META-INF/persistence.xml using JBossAS 7.1.1 and the upgraded versions of the Hibernate JARs (4.0.1 -> 4.1.1)? Any hint is appreciated!
What happens when you try putting the new property in persistence.xml and replace the Hibernate jars with the newer 4.1.3 release?
