Re: retrieving the datasource of a CMP bean?

[Simon Oldeboershuis]

Hi Joe,

I posted a similiar question earlier. I got an answer from Philippe:

-----------cut--------------------
To get a DataSource in your CMP  EntityBean  you can do:

try {
        initialContext = new InitialContext();
        dataSource
=(DataSource)initialContext.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/MyDs");
            } catch (Exception e) {
     ...
     ...

With in your XML DD
 <resource-ref>
        <res-ref-name>jdbc/MyDs</res-ref-name>
        <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
        <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
 </resource-ref>

-----------cut--------------------

I hope this helps!
