I saw in the Gemini JPA examples that it is using a Derby DBAccess service.

DBAccess for Derby register 4 different services with 2 different versions.

I couldn't find in source code how Gemini JPA is filtering the right one.

could someone point me to that?

regards,

Cristiano

Hi Cristiano,

Good question Smile

Gemini JPA just filters the DataSourceFactory based on the driver class name specified in the persistence descriptor under the javax.persistence.jdbc.driver property. It does not do anything special for Derby, so the version properties are not filtered. The first service it finds that has a service property with the right driver class name will be used.

BTW, if you are looking for the code that does the DSF lookup see GeminiServicesUtil.trackDataSourceFactory().

I couldn't find anything in OSGi Enterprise JPA Service Specification about the use of osgi.jdbc.driver.version to filter the DataSourceFactory.

Perhaps it was a missing detail on the spec or the spec expected that JDBC Service would expose only one version of the drive per bundle(this way we could install the right bundle) ?

Well, I wouldn't matter if I could ensure with 100% which version would be bound. But I could note that this is not true. I saw sometimes 3.0 being bounded and sometimes 4.0.

cheers

Cristiano

The version property was defined in OSGi so that clients of JDBC could load the driver version they wanted. Unfortunately there was no JPA property that provided a similar facility. We have considered adding a feature that would read an additional custom property from the persistence descriptor, but it would be non-standard in terms of JPA. An alternative is to just allow the additional property to be specified in the EMFBuilder.createEMF call, but that would be somewhat limiting in that the regular EMF service could not be used.

Feel free to enter a bug and make a suggestion about how you would prefer to specify the driver version.

Thanks,
-Mike

JDBC service uses this property "osgi.jdbc.driver.version", right?

Maybe we can catch this property in JPA and use it to filter the JDBC service properly?

Yes, putting this property in the persistence.xml file and getting Gemini JPA to look for it there is what I was describing in my earlier reply.

I have entered bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=373288
Comment there and vote for it if you like Smile

Ok, I like it Smile

I've include myself in CC list, but I can't see the vote link on the bug page.
