Dear list,
I am a Jackrabbit newbie and am trying to get Jackrabbit running in
the following context:
- Tomcat 5.5 or 6
- Spring 2.5.6
- MySQL or db4o (not clear yet)
- Jackrabbit
In particular, I want to get transactions running, encompassing
Jackrabbit and MySQL/db4o.
I have search via Google to see whether I need an external transaction
manager for this, as Tomcat does not provide Container Managed
Transactions. I have seen a few posts on Jencks and Atomikos, and the
introduction "Integrating Java Content Repository and Spring" at
http://www.infoq.com/articles/spring-modules-jcr
To be on the safe side I'd like to know whether for my particular
context this is still up-to-date: Do I need Jencks/Atomikos/some other
transaction manager in order to use Jackrabbit and one more database
under Spring?
If so, do you recommend Jencks or Atomikos?
Many thanks for any pointers,
Kaspar
