title: Configuring JPA and JOTM without Spring
body: <p>Can anyone point me to an example of configuring JPA/JOTM in an environment where Spring <strong><em>isn't</em></strong> being used? </p>
  
  <p>I'm building a web-app with Tomcat and JPA/MySQL. Currently I'm just using the RESOURCE_LOCAL transactions in the JPA persistence unit, but I'd like to move to a real transaction manager (JOTM) if possible.  I've looked all over the web and all I seem to be able to find are examples using Spring. </p>
  
  <p>Can anyone point me in the right direction?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
