This is how I implemented Bryce's great response to my problem: - In the code I used: jdo = new JDO(); jdo.setDatabaseName(Config.DATABASE_NAME); jdo.setConfiguration(Config.databaseXml()); // points to the 'database.xml' file, which I can call whatever I wish, // along with the file path of my choice.
