title: Lazy loading does not works for ManyToOne in eclipselink
body: <p>Address has many-to-one relationship with person like :</p>
  
  <p>Person :</p>
  
  <pre><code>@Id 
      @Column(name="personid")
      private Long personId;
      private String firstName;
      private String lastName;
      private String email;    
  
      @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL,mappedBy="person",targetEntity=Address.class,fetch=FetchType.LAZY)      
      private List addressArray=new ArrayList&lt;&gt;();   
      public Person() {
  
      }  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and Address :</p>
  
  <pre><code>@ManyToOne(fetch = FetchType.LAZY)
      @JoinColumn(name="personId")
      private Person person;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I want to access person's firstname from the address object like "address.person.firstname" but it always eager load the person ? </p>
  
  <p>I also tried to static weave it using maven my pom.xml contains :</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;plugins&gt;
          &lt;artifactId&gt;maven-antrun-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;
       &lt;executions&gt;
         &lt;execution&gt;
           &lt;phase&gt;process-classes&lt;/phase&gt;
           &lt;configuration&gt;
             &lt;tasks&gt;
               &lt;java classname="org.eclipse.persistence.tools.weaving.jpa.StaticWeave"
                     classpathref="maven.runtime.classpath" fork="true"&gt;
                 &lt;arg line="-loglevel FINE -persistenceinfo src target/classes target/classes"/&gt;
               &lt;/java&gt;
             &lt;/tasks&gt;
           &lt;/configuration&gt;
           &lt;goals&gt;
             &lt;goal&gt;run&lt;/goal&gt;
           &lt;/goals&gt;
         &lt;/execution&gt;
       &lt;/executions&gt;
        &lt;/plugin&gt;
  
          &lt;/plugins&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>also added <code>&lt;property name="eclipselink.weaving" value="static"/&gt;</code> in persistence.xml</p>
  
  <p>I also tried dynamic weaving but it gives exception :</p>
