Hello Tim, A control requires certain contextual services during runtime which are typically provided by a context container that it runs under.
If you are running your control in the Web tier, here is a message in the archive that Kyle had provided on how to setup the ControlFilter to provide these services in the Web Tier: http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/[EMAIL PROTECTED] or.apache.org&msgId=2026505 If you want to run your control in a standalone bean context container, Brett has provided some useful classes here: http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/browse/BEEHIVE-103 Hoi -----Original Message----- From: Timothy Brown [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 2004 12:36 PM To: beehive-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: Control initialization failure Hello, I am trying to use the database control and I get the following exception: Response from the selectEmployee() method on the Employee Manager Control: Exception caught: Control initialization failure[Contextual service org.apache.beehive.controls.api.context.ResourceContext is not available] This is my code from my jcx file: import java.sql.SQLException; import java.io.Serializable; import java.util.Iterator; import java.util.HashMap; import org.apache.beehive.controls.api.bean.ControlExtension; import dbControl.DatabaseControl; import dbControl.DatabaseControl.ConnectionDataSource; //@ControlExtension //@ConnectionDataSource(jndiName="java:comp/env/com.bea.EventTracker") @ControlExtension @ConnectionDataSource(jndiName="jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost, sa") public interface EmployeeDBControl extends DatabaseControl { @SQL(statement="SELECT employee_id, first_name, last_name FROM EMPLOYEE WHERE employee_id={ id }") public Employee selectEmployee( int id ) throws SQLException; @SQL(statement="UPDATE EMPLOYEE SET last_name = {lname} WHERE id = {emp_id}") public void updateEmployee( String lName, int emp_id ) throws SQLException; } Any ideas?
