Hi Geronimo Team,
I hope I'm directing this question correctly.
First, thank you all for your excellent work on Geronimo 2.1. Our team
has standardized on Geronimo at our large enterprise, and we think its
the best app server in the industry.
Thanks!
We are in current development of an JSF/EJB3/OpenJPA application, and we
would very much like to use Seam (2).
For the past few days we have been trying (without much luck) to
configure Geronimo to work with Seam and Hibernate; we would prefer
OpenJPA as the persistence provider, but it appears impossible to use
with Seam.
I've tried to work thru:
http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxSAMPLES/running-jboss-seam-200ga-on-geronimo
-21.html but the maven project to download the Hibernate Transaction
Manager appears not to work, and we are finding the instructions a bit
hard to follow. (we don't use Maven, we are Subversion users)
$ mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=org.apache.geronimo.hibernate
-DartifactId=geronimo-hibernate-transaction-manager-lookup
I have updated the directions to correspond to the released Geronimo 2.1
version. But, I have not made it through testing all of the directions
after creating the transaction manager jar.
For your convenience, here is a link to the jar that I built:
http://people.apache.org/~jaydm/hibernate/geronimo-hibernate-transaction-manager-lookup-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
Question 1:
Is there a Geronimo 2.1 build that already includes everything needed to
run Seam 2 or Hibernate that I can download, so we do not have to
manually patch it?
Not that I am aware of.
Question 2:
Is there any advice/guidance you can give my team regarding setting up
Geronimo 2.1 to use Seam 2? We would very much like integrate Seam into
Geronimo for our long term application development.
I think that after the tutorial has been re-tested for the released
Geronimo 2.1 version - that tutorial should be all you need to set up
Geronimo for Seam.
Thanks for your time and great work,
