Factory for Datasources (serverConstructor="org.myapp.MyDataSource")

[edulid]

Hi,

I was able to make my Dmi classes participate in Guice dependencty injection with a factory, as I explained here: https://forums.smartclient.com/forum...ce-server-side

The DmiFactory gets an instance of the Guice injector and creates an instance of the Dmi class with this injector. In such a way, the Dmi is able to use injected objects. This works fine.

Now I need to inject objects to a Datasource:
In my datasources I have a serverConstructor:

<DataSource ID="myDatasource" serverType="sql" tableName="myTable"
serverConstructor="org.myapp.MyDataSource">

I suppose SmartGWT creates an instance of this using "new org.myapp.MyDataSource()" (with no arguments).
Is there a way to use a factory here, analogous as the factory in the Dmi? In my Dmis I use this:

<operationBinding operationType="custom">
<serverObject className="org.myapp.DmiFactory"
 lookupStyle="factory" />

With this code, the Dmi is not longer created with "new Dmi()" but using the factory. I need an analogous way to use a factory for a Datasource. The datasource should not be longer created using "new MyDataSource()" but using the factory. Is this possible?

Using smartgwt 6.1p power.

No, sorry, no factory pattern is available for DataSource construction. The closest thing is the ability to use a spring bean in the format spring:beanName (see docs).
