Hi Jon,
Cayenne looks up stuff in Modeler preferences only AFTER it fails the
normal JNDI lookup (this is the same across 1.2, 2.0, and 3.0
versions). So there should be something in your config that prevents
JNDI from working. So a question - can you obtain a DataSource
instance bypassing Cayenne from within a unit test?

Hey guys,
I'm using Cayenne 3.0M3, and have been using JNDI to get my
datasource. This works just fine when deploying our app to our
Glassfish container, as we have our JNDI resource defined there.
However, we are now attempting to do some JUnit testing of our data
access layer and therefore need to provide a JNDI reference out-of-
container. I've found this helpful blog entry by Randy Carver:
http://blogs.sun.com/randystuph/entry/injecting_jndi_datasources_for_junit
and it really seemed to address our issue. It seems to get us
close, but Cayenne doesn't seem to pick up on our "jdbc/sunrise"
reference. (this matches the reference in our Cayenne data map.)
It attempts to find a resource by using the modeler user
preferences, instead. The JNDI docs I found relating to Cayenne
seemed to be for 1.2, so I don't know how relevant they still are.
They seem to indicate that Cayenne will look for the "default"
provider first, then the user prefs. My question is, do we need to
do anything else in our JUnit setup method to make our "jdbc/
sunrise" reference the "default"?
Does anyone do out-of-container JUnit testing with Cayenne and JNDI?
Thanks,
Jon
