System overview:

* Eclipse Indigo for RAP RCP devs, RAP 1.4 Target Components, Dali JPA, Jre1.6.0_33 (Java1.6SE) local oracle mysql db
* all JPA (Persistence) + Eclipse link OSGi bundles imported in project (according to eclipse wiki)
* OSGi bundle containing com.mysql.jdbc.Driver class imported in project (latest 5.1.21 ? from Oracle page)
* persistence plugin created via JPA, with jdbc driver,correct mysql db path, correct password & user (added dependency to com.mysql.jdbc bundle)

To avoid ClassLoader problem:

*bundle/plugin com.mysql.jdbc has in its MANIFEST.MF: Bundle-BuddyPolicy: registered
*org.eclipse.persistence.core & org.eclipse.persitence.jpa and mine "persistence bundle" having Buddy registered in their MANIFEST.MF : Eclipse-RegisterBuddy:com.mysql.jdbc + they have dependency to this bundle com.mysql.jdbc

Problem:

* even after all previous steps I have still: ClassNotFoundException - Driver not found

Remark:

* connection to localhost mysql db tested from inside Eclipse DatabaseConnection, used same driver from bundle com.mysql.jdbc (class com.mysql.jdbc.Driver) [OK]
* if org.apache.derby Embedded db with Embeded driver is used for persistence (instead of mysql) (with same Buddy policy), problem does not appear - everything works fine

Question:

* could it be problem still with ClassLoaders even if BuddyPolicy applied ?
* could it be problem in driver itselves, when its used as OSGi bundle ?
* has somebody ever try to use this com.mysql.osgi bundle in RCP or RAP together with JPA+Eclipselink ?

What do you thing about using Gemini-JPA, it works well with me

Hello Thomas,
I think that your problem is not RAP/RCP related, but OSGi generally.

1. First of all, I'd check if your connection-bundle is loaded (use "ss" command in console)

2. On the other hand I would recommend to use Blueprint Container. I'm using Apache Aries as blueprint container + OpenJPA and two databases (H2 and Oracle). It works like a charm.

It was a few months ago, but I remember few facts from time when I tried to evaluate JPA with OSGi. Here are my observations:
- Hibernate have too much problems when using with OSGi
- EclipseLink works great with OSGi, but I also wanted to use JTA, so I looked over Apache Aries. I found out that as it works fine when you use EclipseLink + JDBC but it could not run when I used EclipseLink+Aries+JDBC
- OpenJPA works great with OSGi, but it also works great with Apache Aries. Right now I stick to this.

3. I digged up my very simple project that used EclipseLink with JDBC directly - see attachment. What's needed (example is based on HSQLDB):
- META-INF/MANIFEST.MF: add just this (it's name of your PU)
JPA-PersistenceUnits: jpa-osgi-resourcelocal 

- META-INF/persistence.xml:
	<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
	<persistence version="2.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_0.xsd">
		<persistence-unit name="jpa-osgi-resourcelocal" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
			<class>model.Person</class>
			<properties>
				<property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.url" value="jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost:9001/mydb"/>
				<property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.user" value="sa"/>
				<property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.password" value=""/>
				<property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.driver" value="org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver"/>
			</properties>
		</persistence-unit>
	</persistence>

- here is list of bundles from running console - it can show you what's should be present in OSGi environment in order to run EclipseLink:
>ss

34	ACTIVE      jpa-osgi-resourcelocal_1.0.0.qualifier

I hope I helped.
