Hi Andreas,
please have a look at javadoc of DataSource
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/javax/sql/DataSource.html#getConnection(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String)
It is possible to setup DataSource with the ability to specify user/password at runtime.

If your DataSource does not expect user/password, you don't need to set this in repository_database.
But some user don't want to specify user/password in an configuration file (in OJB or in the app providing the Datasource), thus you have to pass it at runtime.

hi,
I have read some postings about OJB's datasource handling and I'm confused now.
It's said, that you have to
a.) put username/password both in the datasource.xml and repository_database.xml or
b.) let username/password blank and give it to the broker (with pbkey) at runtime.
why is that?
if I tell ojb in repository_database.xml to use a specifc JNDI datasource,
ojb could obtain a connection from this datasource without a password/username (because they are already configured wihtin the datasource), so why does ojb need them again?
thanks very much for your answers, andreas
