[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (WFLY-2680) java:comp/DefaultDataSource doesn't work in persistence.xml
[

arjan tijms commented on WFLY-2680:
-----------------------------------
{quote}The reason why this does not work is because java:comp is scoped to a
component{quote}
You're right, and this is perhaps a somewhat unfortunate choice. Perhaps {{java:app}}
of even {{java:global}} would have been the better choice. I've always thought of
{{java:comp}} to be a somewhat peculiar space anyway, as the entire web module counts as
one component, but every single EJB bean is a component as well. With the EJB model being
slowly retrofitted towards a set of CDI extensions and interceptors it's not clear to
me what the long term usage of this name space will be anyway.
I guess {{java:comp}} was chosen so it can be more easily re-mapped to another data source
on a per component basis, but not sure if that's worth the hassle.
Note that all the other default resources, like the JMS connection factory and executor
service and such are also in {{java:comp}}.
{quote}We can probably just hack something in to make this work though, as it would be
more user friendly.{quote}
That would be really great! I'll try to address this issue with the EG and ask for
some clarification.
java:comp/DefaultDataSource doesn't work in persistence.xml
-----------------------------------------------------------
Key: WFLY-2680
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-2680
Project: WildFly
Issue Type: Feature Request
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: EE, JPA / Hibernate
Affects Versions: 8.0.0.CR1
Reporter: arjan tijms
Assignee: David Lloyd
Labels: javaee7, jdbc
Having a persistence.xml with the following content fails the deployment on WildFly 8
CR1:
{code:xml}
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<persistence version="2.1"
xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/persistence"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/persistence
http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_1.xsd">
<persistence-unit name="testPU">
<jta-data-source>java:comp/DefaultDataSource</jta-data-source>
</persistence-unit>
</persistence>
{code}
It results in the following error:
{noformat}
13:51:40,367 ERROR [org.jboss.as.controller.management-operation]
(DeploymentScanner-threads - 2) JBAS014613: Operation ("deploy") failed -

When I proposed the feature for the default data source over at the Java EE JIRA
(https://java.net/jira/browse/JAVAEE_SPEC-4) I intended this to work. In the description I
hinted that the standard JNDI name would be the standard alternative for
{{java:jboss/datasources/ExampleDS}} on JBoss. The latter indeed does work in
{{persistence.xml}} using WildFly 8 CR1.
Omitting the {{jta-data-source}} element altogether *does* work, which is great. However,
I foresee a lot of users tripping over this in the future and just giving up the idea of
using a default data source, especially since the error message is very cryptic for new
developers.
In GlassFish 4 using {{java:comp/DefaultDataSource}} in {{persistence.xml}} does work.
