[jbossseam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (JBSEAM-1410) Make Microcontainer to use Tomcat-defined datasources
[ http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1410?page=comments#action_12364758 ]
Alex Savitsky commented on JBSEAM-1410:
---------------------------------------
It's not that *I* need any changes in Seam... as you already noticed, I satisfied my
requirements just fine. Right now I'm simply trying to share what I did with others
that might (and will) run into similar problems. All I suggest is to add the attached code
to the org.jboss.seam.microcontainer, to complement the DataSourceFactory that's
already there. Is it too much to ask?
Make Microcontainer to use Tomcat-defined datasources
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: JBSEAM-1410
URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-1410
Project: JBoss Seam
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Core
Reporter: Alex Savitsky
Attachments: TomcatDataSourceFactory.java
Currently, when deploying on Tomcat+Microcontainer stack, the only way to define a
DataSource is to define it in jboss-beans.xml file, which is located INSIDE the deployed
WAR.
A common (and de-facto standard) requirement for production deployments is to let server
admin to define the data source, so as not to expose production DB credentials to
developers. This requires for the data source definition to be outside of the deployed
WAR, either in Tomcat's server.xml file, or in META-INF/context.xml. It would be nice
if there would be a way to use that external datasource, instead of defining it in
jboss-beans.xml
