What value should I place into <jta-data-source>
of my persistence.xml
?
In glassfish admin panel I created a datasource name "abcDS"
. In my jndi.properties
(inside src/test/resources
) I defined it like this:
[...]
abcDS=new://Resource?type=DataSource
abcDS.JdbcDriver=org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver
abcDS.JdbcUrl=jdbc:hsqldb:mem:testdb
abcDS.JtaManaged=true
[...]
What shall I place into persistence.xml
? I've found a lot of variants in the Net, like: "jdbc/abcDS"
, "java:/abcDS"
, "abcDS"
. Which one is right? And is there some rule for this? I understand that it's related to JNDI, but...
I'm trying to create EMF in my unit test:
EntityManagerFactory emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("abc");
This is what I'm getting in log:
[...]
SEVERE: Could not find datasource: abcDS javax.naming.NameNotFoundException:

The problem is that Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("abc")
is the "do it yourself" API and doesn't take advantage of the Embedded EJB Container. You can get a container managed EntityManager
in your test case very easily.
Just as with the related jndi/datasource question I recommend you check out the examples in the examples.zip. They're all designed to take the struggle out of getting started.
Here's a snippet from the testcase-injection
example which shows how you can get an EntityManager and other things from the container for use in a test.
First, add an empty ejb-jar.xml or application-client.xml to your test to turn on scanning for your test code:
Then, annotate your test case with @org.apache.openejb.api.LocalClient
and use the standard JavaEE annotations for the actual injection.
@LocalClient
public class MoviesTest extends TestCase {
@EJB
private Movies movies;
@Resource
private UserTransaction userTransaction;
@PersistenceContext
private EntityManager entityManager;
public void setUp() throws Exception {
Properties p = new Properties();
p.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "org.apache.openejb.client.LocalInitialContextFactory");
p.put("movieDatabase", "new://Resource?type=DataSource");
p.put("movieDatabase.JdbcDriver", "org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver");
p.put("movieDatabase.JdbcUrl", "jdbc:hsqldb:mem:moviedb");
InitialContext initialContext = new InitialContext(p);
// Here's the fun part
initialContext.bind("inject", this);
}
As movieDatabase
is the only DataSource that we've setup, OpenEJB will automatically assign that DataSource to your persistence unit without the need to modify your persistence.xml. You can even leave the <jta-data-source>
or <non-jta-data-source>
empty and OpenEJB will still know what to do.
But for the sake of completeness, here's how this particular application has defined the persistence.xml
<persistence xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" version="1.0">
<persistence-unit name="movie-unit">
<jta-data-source>movieDatabase</jta-data-source>
<non-jta-data-source>movieDatabaseUnmanaged</non-jta-data-source>
<class>org.superbiz.testinjection.Movie</class>
<properties>
<property name="openjpa.jdbc.SynchronizeMappings" value="buildSchema(ForeignKeys=true)"/>
</properties>
</persistence-unit>
</persistence>
Then the fun part, using it all together in tests
public void test() throws Exception {
userTransaction.begin();
try {
entityManager.persist(new Movie("Quentin Tarantino", "Reservoir Dogs", 1992));
entityManager.persist(new Movie("Joel Coen", "Fargo", 1996));
entityManager.persist(new Movie("Joel Coen", "The Big Lebowski", 1998));
List<Movie> list = movies.getMovies();
assertEquals("List.size()", 3, list.size());
for (Movie movie : list) {
movies.deleteMovie(movie);
}
assertEquals("Movies.getMovies()", 0, movies.getMovies().size());
} finally {
userTransaction.commit();
}
}
