Ramesh Reddy resolved TEIID-861.
--------------------------------

    Resolution: Done


All the Teiid connectors are modified

- to use the new connector api based on the JCA
- produce 'rar' files instead of jar files. The rar files also include all the dependent jar files.
- the data in the 'configuration-xxx.xml' file has been re-written to JCA format in '/src/main/rar/META-INF/ra.xml' file
- connector types are defined by the data in 'ra.xml', there is no single 'configuration.xml' that contains all the connector types
- participate in container initiated transaction
- credentials available are from the LoginContext

> All the supported connectors in the Teiid project must implement the JCA API according to TEIID-859 and packaged into RAR file format. This also fixes concerns in TEIID-143. Once the Connectors are packaged into RAR file format, when they are deploy in a container, they will hold all the needed dependencies inside the single artifact, which containers know how to deploy and re-load when there is a change.
> The concern is how this will affect the Designer Integration, and connector type information is exposed to external tools.
