Spring restful service with JDO

I intend creating a restful webservices with spring and Datanucleus JDO for persistence. I have read a couple of materials and i think i understand safe for some grey areas. I have created my domain/Model classes but unsure of certain things. Here are my questions

1) Is it possible to annotate my persistent Classes with @XmlRootElement and @PersistenceCapable. I ask this because the same persistent classes will be marshalled and unmarshalled to and from xml. For example 

@PersistenceCapable
@XmlRootElement(name="miscode")
public class MisCode {

}

2) I already have a database i need to connect to, so how do i map each Model e.g(MisCode.java) class to it's corresponding table name in the database. Is the .orm file necessary and where do i put it?

3) Is persistence.xml necessary and where does it come in?

Thank you all.

  1. Why wouldn't two independent annotations be usable?

  2. Why not read the docs for DataNucleus about how to map to a schema? http://www.datanucleus.org/products/accessplatform_3_0/jdo/orm/schema_mapping.html

  3. No. As above, read the docs of the JDO implementation you chose, or read the JDO spec.
