Affirmative, Milo. Putting the resources.json file under src/conf on my
EJB Project puts it in its final resting place under /META-INF. Here's a
snippet of the jar output:
META-INF/
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
com/
com/example/
com/example/myejb/
com/example/myejb/datalayer/
com/example/myejb/datalayer/entity/
com/example/myejb/datalayer/facade/
META-INF/beans.xml
META-INF/persistence.xml
*META-INF/resources.json*
So that looks good according to your description.
So, next is: I've added the EJB project's jar to the web app that calls
its beans. That one put the jar under /WEB-INF/lib. As documented here:
WEB-INF/faces-config.xml
WEB-INF/ignore-this-resources.xml
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-bv1-module-api-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-bv1-module-impl-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-core-api-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-core-impl-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-jpa1-module-api-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-jpa1-module-impl-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-jsf20-module-api-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-jsf20-module-impl-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-message-module-api-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-message-module-impl-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-scripting-module-api-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/myfaces-extcdi-scripting-module-impl-1.0.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/primefaces-3.5.jar
WEB-INF/lib/primefaces-mobile-0.9.4.jar
*WEB-INF/lib/myejb.jar*
Still, when I deploy the war file, I don't see TomEE picking up the data
source definition and creating a data source for it. I see the
persistence unit trying to reference the data source name, although the
log looks suspicious too:
INFO: Adjusting PersistenceUnit vmi-dal-qsvmi-devPU <jta-data-source>
to Resource ID*'Default JDBC Database' *from 'jdbc/mydb'
Which to me sounds like: hey I didn't find that data source you're
telling me, so I'm setting it to a default data source.
Any more idea before I throw in the towel and get back to the way I had
it (resources.xml inside web app)?
Thanks.

Well I don’t really know how NetBeans goes about doing things. But basically
you want to end up with an ejb-jar file (let’s call it app.jar) where the
META-INF folder is at the root:
extract app.jar produces:
\META-INF\resources.json
\META-INF\persistence.xml
\META-INF\MANIFEST.MF
\com\mycompany\model\MyEntity.class
etc…
try calling jar -xvf app.jar (after NetBeans creates the jar file) to see if
its creating as above.

My persistence.xml looks like that. Thanks.
However, I can't seem to make TomEE pick up the resources.json file. Now, I
don't have a maven project, just a regular project in NetBeans. I'm confused
about the location of where to put the file as I don't have
src/main/resources... I've tried to create a META-INF directory under Source
Packages (in NetBeans) and put the file there. That didn't work. Then I tried
to move the json file in the same location as the persistence.xml file, which
in my case under NetBeans is physically under src/conf. That didn't work
either. So hmmm...

Well it works without specifying the type for me, so I’m guessing its not
needed, not sure if its needed for the resources.xml.
Just want to confirm that you have in your persistence.xml a tag of the
following:
<jta-data-source>MusicPulseDataSource</jta-data-source>
(i.e the name of the datasource that you’ve put in the resources.xml)

Milo: thanks for the example. I'm comparing it to the resources.xml file and
notice one difference: there's no resource type (e.g. javax.sql.DataSource). Is
that implied or default?

Hi,
My complete file, resources.json (obviously i changed the login details :P):
{
"resources": {
"MusicPulseDataSource": {
"properties": {
"JdbcDriver": "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver",
"JdbcUrl":
"jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/MYDATABASE",
"UserName": “db_user",
"Password": “db_password",
"JtaManaged": true,
"MaxActive": 200
}
}
}
}
Remember to have it in src/main/resources/META-INF/resources.json (alongside my
persistence.xml)
and my pom.xml packaging is:
<packaging>ejb</packaging>
an ejb jar.

Hi
No but we can think to a resources-fragment.xml. the main issue it has is
it add deployment data to lib which are generally not aware of it. The idea
is even the opposite ans uqe ${xxx} for resources values and set it as
system properties

Question: Is it possible to put the resources.xml file that defines a data
source inside an EJB jar instead of putting it inside a WAR under
WEB-INF??? The reason why I'm asking is that it would be very convenient if
I could put the data source definition inside the EJB that matches the
remote database.
The documentation just mentions the WEB-INF location or defining the data
source directly on the server inside tomee.xml.
Thanks.
