Can we include a sample datasource named jdbc/sample so that it's
possible to deploy the same example application to JBoss AS and
GlassFish without any other configuration? This is a constant headache
for creating quickstart applications and we have the opportunity to
close the gap.
Here's the gap we've been juggling:
JBoss AS < 7: java:/DefaultDS
GlassFish 3: jdbc/__default and jdbc/sample
In addition to the testing / migration points Dan makes, this actually has a docs/QE
impact. It often comes up that customers think the name DefaultDS means something
specific, and that they shouldn't change it. Since we absolutely don't want them
using the sample datasource for production, I think calling it "sample" is a win
all around. I think customers would be much less comfortable using the "sample"
datasource in production than trying to use the "default" datasource in
production.
I know this seems trivial, but trust me, it makes a huge difference
to
help bring new users on board. They are forced to deal with
datasources before they can learn anything else.
