Thanks Marc! And what about the datasource? Is there another equivalent
interface and property to use?

Matthieu-

If you have a custom TransactionManager, you can tell Kodo to access
it using a ManagedRuntime implementation (see http://
incubator.apache.org/openjpa/docs/latest/javadoc/org/apache/openjpa/
ee/ManagedRuntime.html ).

For example, if your TransactionManager is accessible via the JNDI
name "comp/env/MyTransactionManager", then you could tell OpenJPA to
access it by setting the "openjpa.ManagedRuntime" property to the
value: "org.apache.openjpa.ee.JNDIManagedRuntime
(TransactionManagerName=comp/env/MyTransactionManager)". For more
exotic mechanisms of accessing the TransactionManager, you can just
make a custom implementation of the ManagedRuntime class.

In the future, we intent to make this more standard by utilizing the
new javax.transaction.TransactionSynchronizationRegistry mechanism,
but for now, we have custom implementations for each of our known and
supported application servers (see the code at http://svn.apache.org/
viewvc/incubator/openjpa/trunk/openjpa-kernel/src/main/java/org/
apache/openjpa/ee/AutomaticManagedRuntime.java?
view=markup&pathrev=468504 ).
