For implementations that support multiple databases in the same PMF, it would be
nice to allow in the XML to define multiple group of properties e.g.
<pmf>
<config> <!-- default -->
<property name="connection-driver-name" value="XXX1">
</config>
<config name="postgres">
<property name="connection-driver-name" value="XXX2">
</config>
<config name="oracle-legacy-server">
<property name="connection-driver-name" value="XXX3">
</config>
</pmf>
The config name is used by JDO metadata to match the database it belongs to,
with adding a kind of config reference to JDO metadata, e.g.
<class config-ref="oracle-legacy-server">
or with vendor extensions:
<class>
<extension vendor-name="JPOX" key="datastore" value="oracle-legacy-server"/>
</class>
Of course this config reference can be set at jdo, package, class, interface or
field elements.

> --------------------------------------
>
> Proposed answers to question in previous comment.
>
> > Q: The persistence.xml file is required to be in the META-INF/ folder
> within the persistence archive. What is proposed in JDO 2.1 to align with
> JPA's concept of a persistence archive?
> >
> A: There is no longer the notion of "persistence archive" in JPA. Ignored.
>
> > Q: If both a jdo.xml and persistence.xml are found, which has precedence?
> >
> A: (Note: Multiple jdo.xml files are allowed.) This only matters when there
> are multiple persistence units (PMF and/or EMF) found with the same names and
> the user requested a persistence unit of the same name -- if that happens, a
> JDOUserException should be thrown.
>
> > Q: If a jdo.xml is found but there is no persistence-factory-manager
> element whose name attribute matches the resource,
> > should we throw JDOUserException or fall back to JDO 2.0 & prior behavior,
> looking for a properties resource by the given resource?
> >
> A: Fall back to JDO 2.0 behavior.

> > Project: JDO
> > Issue Type: New Feature
> > Components: api2, api2-legacy
> > Affects Versions: JDO 2 maintenance release 1
> > Reporter: Matthew T. Adams
> > Attachments: jdo-config.xsd.version-01.txt

> > From the email on the expert group & jdo-dev alias:
> > This is a proposal we discussed on the Fri Feb 23 JDO conf call. Please
> > review and discuss.
> > Overview:
> > Currently, there is no way to bootstrap a JDO implementation completely
> > externally to the source code. The developer is required to provide at
> > least a resource name that identifies a java.util.Properties file on the
> > classpath that can configure a single PMF. This makes deployment in
> > different environments more challenging than necessary.
> > Motivation:
> > * Source code is required to be aware of external configuration:
> > * In all current JDOHelper.getPersistenceManagerFactory APIs and
> > * in order to configure listeners.
> > * Aligns JDO bootstrapping with JPA bootstrapping concepts.
> > Proposed Solution:
> > * Introduce new API methods and JDO equivalent of the JPA persistence
> > unit concepts, including a jdo.xml file that provides for the
> > configuration of one or more named PMFs.
> > Details:
> > * PersistenceManagerFactory additions
> > /** Returns the persistence unit name of this PMF. It's the JPA
> > persistence unit name if configured via persistence.xml or the JDO
> > persistence unit name if configured via javax.jdo.xml. */
> > public String getName();
> > * JDOHelper API additions
> > /** The default name of the JDO configuration file. */
> > public static final String DEFAULT_JDO_CONFIG_RESOURCE_NAME =
> > "javax.jdo.xml";
> > /** The name of the default persistence unit. */
> > public static final String DEFAULT_PMF_NAME = "default";
> > /** Gets the PMF named "default" in the resource "javax.jdo.xml" found
> > via the current ClassLoader. */
> > public static PersistenceManagerFactory getPersistenceFactoryManager() {
> > return getPersistenceFactoryManagerByName(DEFAULT_PMF_NAME);
> > }
> > /** Gets the PMF named pmfName in the resource "javax.jdo.xml" found via
> > the current ClassLoader. */
> > public static PersistenceManagerFactory
> > getPersistenceManagerFactoryByName(String pmfName) {
> > return getPersistenceFactoryManagerByName(DEFAULT_PMF_NAME,
> > DEFAULT_JDO_CONFIG_RESOURCE_NAME);
> > }
> > /** Gets the PMF named pmfName in the resource named resourceName found
> > via the current ClassLoader. */
> > public static PersistenceManagerFactory
> > getPersistenceManagerFactoryByName(String pmfName, String resourceName)
> > {
> > return getPersistenceFactoryManagerByName(DEFAULT_PMF_NAME,
> > DEFAULT_JDO_CONFIG_RESOURCE_NAME, getClass().getClassLoader());
> > }
> > /** Gets the PMF named pmfName in the resource named resourceName found
> > via the current ClassLoader. */
> > public static PersistenceManagerFactory
> > getPersistenceManagerFactoryByName(String pmfName, String resourceName,
> > ClassLoader loader) {
> > // reads resource resourceName via given loader
> > // configures & returns PMF with the given name

> > * Possibilities for DEFAULT_JDO_CONFIG_RESOURCE_NAME value:
> > need to determine file name (similar to persistence.xml)
> > javax.jdo.xml
> > jdo.xml
