I'm currently running a somewhat simple CXF/REST/Spring app in TomEE 7.0.1. It uses the CXF libraries in WEB-INF/lib, not in the container. It uses a couple of Environment strings, and some DataSource resources, all of which it gets from JNDI.
I'm considering moving this app from TomEE to Tomcat, because as far as I can see, I don't need anything that TomEE provides over Tomcat, and I'm also running into classloader conflicts now that I've added more code using CXF pieces that I haven't used before. I'm pursuing those issues with the TomEE team (ok, Romain), as I'd like to get these issues resolved now that I've run into them, but I have to consider alternative strategies if it's going to take too long to get them resolved. If I attempt to port this to Tomcat, I'm guessing all of the required changes will be in "conf". It appears that in TomEE, I define DataSource Resources in "tomee.xml" and environment strings (and other things) in "Context.xml", but in Tomcat I define all of those in "Context.xml". I assume that's correct? I also need to understand if there are any syntax differences between the "Resource" entries I define in "tomee.xml" and the similar ones I define in "Context.xml" in Tomcat. For instance, in my DataSource Resources in TomEE, I set the "type" to "DataSource", although I see in the Tomcat example it uses "javax.sql.DataSource". Will both of these work in Tomcat? In my current app, I also define the other DataSource properties in the "body" of the "Resource" element, like "key = value", one on each line. In the Tomcat example, they are set as traditional XML attributes. I would also guess that both of these strategies would work in Tomcat, correct? I also have to determine what the required "JNDI prefix" is for Tomcat. Presently, in my TomEE app, I don't need a prefix for the environment entries, but I need to prefix my datasource JNDI names with "openejb:Resource/". What will I need to prefix my JNDI references with in Tomcat? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
