Hi,
I'd like to remove the DataSource reference in web.xml (for 1.1 Beta 1):
<resource-ref>
<description>DB Connection</description>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/XWikiDS</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
it's defined in there but our default hibernate config doesn't use
it, so it's not used by default... but forces users using an app
server to create a fake DS as is described for example in the install
notes for Websphere and jboss.
We also need to document how to configure xwiki to use the app server
DS.
For example see:
http://mail-archive.objectweb.org/xwiki-dev/2005-06/msg00124.html
But I think our default should be the simplest possible ie without DS.
WDYT?
Thanks
-Vincent

I think you specify the reference to this value in hibernate.cfg.xml to
tell hibernate to get it's datasource from this variable.
It's useful because it allows to manage the datasource information in
the App Server config which is liked by App Server managers
However +1 for documenting and test how to specify the datasource in
hibernate.cfg.xml

Yes this is how it works...
It's useful because it allows to manage the
datasource information
in the App Server config which is liked by App Server managers
Of course it's useful! :-)
But this is not my proposal...
My proposal is that the default configuration of XWiki is consistent.
Right now it isn't. Hibernate.cfg.xml doesn't use data source while
web.xml defines one. The issue is that even though xwiki doesn't use
the DS by default, users still have to configure it in the app server
making it more complex to install XWiki (and useless).
So 2 choices:
- either we decide DS is the default config
- or we decide no DS is the default config
but not both at the same time... I prefer the no DS option as it's
easier to get started for a user. Advanced user can the use a
container-defined DS.
I agree DS are useful which is why we should document it and even
possibly comment it out with some comments in the file. But it
shouldn't be on by default IMO.
However +1 for documenting and test how to specify the
datasource
in hibernate.cfg.xml
yep
Thanks
