How to set up default schema name in JPA configuration?

I found that in hibernate config file we could set up parameter hibernate.default_schema:

<hibernate-configuration> 
   <session-factory>
      ...
      <property name="hibernate.default_schema">myschema</property>
      ...
   </session-factory>
</hibernate-configuration>

Now I'm using JPA and I want to do the same. Otherwise I have to add parameter schema to each @Table annotation like:

@Entity
@Table (name = "projectcategory", schema = "SCHEMANAME")
public class Category implements Serializable { ... }

As I understand this parameter should be somewhere in this part of configuration:

<bean id="domainEntityManagerFactory" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
    <property name="persistenceUnitName" value="JiraManager"/>
    <property name="dataSource" ref="domainDataSource"/>
    <property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
        <bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter">
            <property name="generateDdl" value="false"/>
            <property name="showSql" value="false"/>
            <property name="databasePlatform" value="${hibernate.dialect}"/>
        </bean>
    </property>
</bean>

<bean id="domainDataSource" class="com.mchange.v2.c3p0.ComboPooledDataSource" destroy-method="close">
    <property name="driverClass" value="${db.driver}" />
    <property name="jdbcUrl" value="${datasource.url}" />
    <property name="user" value="${datasource.username}" />
    <property name="password" value="${datasource.password}" />
    <property name="initialPoolSize" value="5"/>
    <property name="minPoolSize" value="5"/>
    <property name="maxPoolSize" value="15"/>
    <property name="checkoutTimeout" value="10000"/>
    <property name="maxStatements" value="150"/>
    <property name="testConnectionOnCheckin" value="true"/>
    <property name="idleConnectionTestPeriod" value="50"/>
</bean>

... but I can't find its name in google. Any ideas?

Don't know of JPA property for this either. But you could just add the Hibernate property (assuming you use Hibernate as provider) as

...

<property name="hibernate.default_schema" value="myschema"/>

...

Hibernate should pick that up
