Actually, it sort of is. The number of different services involved gets large 
very quickly! This is one of the reasons that the OSGi RFC for Transaction 
Control exists.

Transaction Control still needs you to use JPA persistence bundles (i.e. 
Meta-Persistence) but it simplifies everything else a lot. You can configure 
your EntityManager with just a few config admin properties.

Hi Tim,

> Have you considered using Aries Transaction Control?
I definitely have, that was going to be my next step once I got this working. I 
just can’t stand that I can’t figure this out. It is not rocket science IMHO ;-)

Thanks. I might bite the bullet and skip ahead to Aries Transactions. Would 
have been nice to have a working platform as baseline.

Hi,

Have you considered using Aries Transaction Control? It's typically much 
simpler to configure than the raw JDBC service, and it definitely gives you 
connection pooling (again, without extra moving parts).

I am trying to get a non-jta connection pool (internal connection pool) working 
with EL 2.6.2, Aries 2.4.0 (incl. EL adapter), dbcp2-2.1 and mySQL, but I must 
be missing something because I just can’t get it to work properly. Everything 
works just fine w/o a connection pool, so this is definitely the source of the 
misery.

Been struggling with this for a while now, and I am running out of ideas. I 
think I could use some sample code to point me in the right direction that 
doesn't use Blueprint? I found some of Christian’s examples, but I don’t think 
they are using connection pools.

Below a short summary of what I run into.

When I am using the ‘original’ MysqlDataSource...

private DataSource createMySQLDataSource( Dictionary 
dbConnProps ) {
MysqlDataSource ds = new MysqlDataSource();
ds.setUrl( dbConnProps.get( "jdbc_url" ) );
ds.setUser( dbConnProps.get( "jdbc_user" ) );
ds.setPassword( dbConnProps.get( "jdbc_password" ) );
return ds;
}

… everything kinda works normally. The DataSource, PersistenceProvider and 
EntityManagerFactory are all created and registered correctly;

g! services javax.sql.DataSource
{javax.sql.DataSource}={eclipselink.target-database=MySQL, 
osgi.jndi.service.name=jdbc/mynonjta, service.id=139, service.bundleid=104, 
service.scope=singleton}
  "Registered by bundle:" 
com.my.project.persistence.mysqldatasource_4.0.0.SNAPSHOT [104]

g! services javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory
{javax.persistence.EntityManagerFactory}={osgi.unit.version=4.0.0.SNAPSHOT, 
osgi.unit.name=my.pu, 
osgi.unit.provider=org.eclipse.persistence.jpa.PersistenceProvider, 
service.id=142, service.bundleid=98, service.scope=singleton}
  "Registered by bundle:" com.my.project.model_4.0.0.SNAPSHOT [98]

The performance is horrible though as I don’t really seem to get a connection 
pool. The connection is closed after every query. On top of that I loose all 
network connections every few seconds with a:

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException: Communications link 
failure

Which has me puzzled for a while now.

So my next attempt was to use the org.apache.commons.dbcp2.BasicDataSource:

   private DataSource createMySQLDataSource(  Dictionary 
dbConnProps ) {

BasicDataSource basicDataSource = new BasicDataSource();
basicDataSource.setDriverClassName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
...
return basicDataSource;
}

This fails because the following exception:

[EL Severe]: 2016-07-24 14:41:55.872--java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: 
Not supported by BasicDataSource
at 
org.apache.commons.dbcp2.BasicDataSource.getConnection(BasicDataSource.java:1552)

Which is this method:

@Override
public Connection getConnection(String user, String pass) throws 
SQLException {
// This method isn't supported by the PoolingDataSource returned by
// the createDataSource
throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Not supported by 
BasicDataSource");
}

So I figured I create a version with a PoolingDataSource  (following the 
PoolingDataSourceExample in svn):

ConnectionFactory connectionFactory = new 
DriverManagerConnectionFactory(dbConnProps.get( "jdbc_url" ), "user", 
"password");
PoolableConnectionFactory poolableConnectionFactory = new 
PoolableConnectionFactory(connectionFactory, null);
ObjectPool connectionPool = new 
GenericObjectPool<>(poolableConnectionFactory);
poolableConnectionFactory.setPool(connectionPool);
PoolingDataSource dataSource = new 
PoolingDataSource<>(connectionPool);
return dataSource;

But that still gives me an exception:

[EL Severe]: 2016-07-24 16:40:30.392--java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
at 
org.apache.commons.dbcp2.PoolingDataSource.getConnection(PoolingDataSource.java:156)

So I am kinda lost now.

This is the relevant stuff from the persistence.xml file:

osgi:service/javax.sql.DataSource/(osgi.jndi.service.name=jdbc/mynonjta)











Although I only see one DataSource registered it somehow feels like there is 
some more stuff going on behind the (EL?) scenes that I don’t have a handle on 
yet.

BTW... I have also created an org.apache.aries.jpa.my.pu.cfg configuration 
file, but when I leave the DB properties out of the persistence.xml I get bunch 
of ClassNotFound exceptions, so that is suspicious.
