Hello,
I'm trying to configure hibernate+hikarip connection pool for TOMEE.
I made it work without issues (at first sight), by configuring
everything in the persistence.xml, basically as described in the answer
to this stackoverflow question:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49366198/how-to-configure-hikaricp-via-tomee-xml
I would rather configure it through TOMEE data sources, as I'm used
to, in the conf/tomee.xml or conf/context.xml
I've attempted to do so, also helping myself with
https://github.com/brettwooldridge/HikariCP/wiki/JNDI-DataSource-Factory-(Tomcat,-etc.)
But I didn't manage to. I got errors like described in the
stackoverflow question, but also some others.
I have two questions:
1. is it supported to specify the connection purely through the
persistence.xml without any datasource in the tomee.xml? Will
UserTransactions, container-managed transactions work as expected?
2. could I configure tomee+hibernate+hikaricp through a tomee
datasource? If so, how? (One reason I'd rather have a datasource is
also so that it's possible to edit the JDBC configuration (eg IP,
password, connection pool size..) without redeploying the
application (because the persistence.xml is in the war)
Thank you!
Emmanuel
