java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.persistence.spi.PersistenceUnitInfo.getValidationMode()Ljavax/persistence/ValidationMode;

I am writing example for spring data.
This is my spring.xml

<beans xmlns="http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:mvc="http://www.springframework.org/schema/mvc"
xmlns:context="http://www.springframework.org/schema/context"

<context:component-scan base-package="com.currencyconverter.entity" />

<bean
class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="location" value="database.properties" />
</bean>

<bean id="dataSource"
class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
<property name="driverClassName" value="${driver.name}" />
<property name="url" value="${database.url}" />
<property name="username" value="${database.username}" />
<property name="password" value="${database.password}" />
</bean>

<bean id="currencyRateImpl" class="com.currencyconverter.dao.CurrencyRateImpl">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
</bean>


<bean id="entityManagerFactory"
class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.LocalContainerEntityManagerFactoryBean">
<property name="dataSource" ref="dataSource" />
<property name="packagesToScan" value="com.currencyconverter.entity" />
<property name="jpaVendorAdapter">
<bean class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.vendor.HibernateJpaVendorAdapter" />
</property>
<property name="jpaProperties">
<props>
<prop key="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto">create-drop</prop>
<prop key="hibernate.dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5Dialect</prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>
<bean id="transactionManager" class="org.springframework.orm.jpa.JpaTransactionManager">
<property name="entityManagerFactory" ref="entityManagerFactory" />
</bean>
</beans>

And these are dependencies in my pom.xml

**I have not used persistence.xml**. I am getting following exception

What is wrong with the code.Are dependencies and versions are correct.OR persistance.xml is necessary for spring 3.2.If so, then what should it contains.

This error occurs because JPA 1 API is brought in, but method [getValidationMode][1] exists only since JPA 2.

Instead of following

<dependency>
<groupId>javax.persistence</groupId>
<artifactId>persistence-api</artifactId>
<version>1.0.2</version>
</dependency>

for example one offered by Hibernate can be used:

<dependency>
<groupId>org.hibernate.javax.persistence</groupId>
<artifactId>hibernate-jpa-2.0-api</artifactId>
<version>1.0.1.Final</version>
</dependency>
