I am new to the Jboss Portal and this is my first post to the forum. However I have a significant amount of experience on the Exo Platform and JSR168 spec. platforms. What I am looking for help with is some kind of refrece to building/writing and deploy your own "Service" for the JBoss Portal. Specifically, I am interested in building a JDBC service or DAO service that is not hybernate based. I just want to be able to ask the portal or context for a data service that returns a JDBC connection. If there is a shout cut to doing this I would be extremely greatfull if some one could give me a heads up or point me in the right direction. Thanks for any help in advance. tseckend View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3967884#...
