Hello all, I've been using OpenEJB since about January and finally have gotten around to checking out the code and learning more about it. I added a feature request (and provided the implementation) for the ability to add aliases for OpenEJB Resources to JNDI: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENEJB-1260 . This is my first submission so I apologize if I incorrectly categorized it in JIRA.
I'm currently using this aliasing feature locally for our development here and it makes integration with JBoss Cache within OpenEJB a lot easier. JBoss Cache is beneficial because it is a transaction cache which also supports clustering and replication. We use OpenEJB here to rapidly develop (since it takes a fraction of the time JBoss does, which is around 8 minutes for JBoss to start our app). We rely upon JBoss Cache for some of our distributed config, as well as some replicated caches for our product. Review and feedback would be appreciated! Thanks, Matthew B. Jones aka "keyhack" on #openejb
