Gemini JPA / DBAccess - best way to configure JDBC properties? [message #1002312] Fri, 18 January 2013 11:36 Go to next message

I've just migrated an OSGi application to Gemini JPA / DBAccess with MySQL, running on Virgo 3.6. Currently I have the jdbc connection property values set in the persistence.xml file. Is it possible to store these properties in a separate configuration file? I'd like to change files for different environments e.g. development, production.

Previously, I had my own OSGi bundle which created a datasource using a C3P0 connection pool. This used a property-placeholder bean which referenced a configuration artefact loaded by Virgo:

<!--  Create a connection pool data source (using C3P0 lib) for the DB -->
    <bean id="dataSource" class="com.mchange.v2.c3p0.ComboPooledDataSource"
             p:driverClass="${db.driverClass}"
             p:jdbcUrl="${db.url}"
             p:user="${db.username}"
             p:password="${db.password}"
             />

     <context:property-placeholder properties-ref="configProperties"/>

     <osgi-compendium:cm-properties id="configProperties" persistent-id="db_config"/>

     <!-- ========================= OSGi SERVICES ========================= -->

     <osgi:service ref="dataSource" interface="javax.sql.DataSource"/>

First, Gemini JPA supports multiple persistence descriptors so you can break things up statically that way.
Second, there is support for dynamic definition using the OSGi config admin service. See http://wiki.eclipse.org/Gemini/JPA/Documentation/OtherTopics#Configuration_Admin

Thanks Mike. I will investigate using the config admin service.
