Hi, the current JMX configuration mechanism used with JBoss allows configure a fixed set of properties only because JBoss cannot handle the setProperty() attribute AFAIK. I have implemented a small extension in HibernateServiceMBean so you can now specify a dynamic set of additional properties in hibernate-service.xml.
e.g.: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <service> <mbean code="cirrus.hibernate.jmx.HibernateService" name="jboss.jca:service=Hibernate"> <depends>jboss.jca:service=RARDeployer</depends> <attribute name="JndiName">java:/HibernateFactory</attribute> ... <attribute name="AdditionalProperties"> <properties> <property name="hibernate.transaction.factory_class" value="cirrus.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory"/> ... </properties> </attribute> </mbean> </service> If you think it is an interesting approach I can suply a patch and doc. BTW: It seems the nice Transaction API (that we use in order to be portable between both J2EE and pure Java envs) is not widely used in J2EE because the hibernate.transaction.factory_class property is not currently exposed via JMX and I didn't find any complaint in forums ;-) Jiri. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ hibernate-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/hibernate-devel
