replace hibernate.cfg.xml

[mikeloco1]

Hi all

We have PowerEdition of smartgwt
Browsers: all

Currently, we use hibernate.cfg.xml for liveGrid and ha-xa-datasource for our EJB. We pack hibernate.cfg.xml in a war file. Is it possible to use JBoss datasource "ha-xa-datasource" instead of hibernate.cfg for liveGrid?

Hi,

First let's make it clear: hibernate.cfg.xml file has configuration for hibernate subsystem (connection, mapped classes, caching, hibernate specific properties etc.). It is not the same as JBoss data source configuration. So you can not discard hibernate.cfg.xml.

Now let's correct your question: can you configure hibernate so that it would use data source configured in JBoss? Yes you can do it via JNDI. Check hibernate configuration docs:
http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/orm/...html/ch03.html

Look for property: hibernate.connection.datasource
