Where to place my third party jars ?
Hi,
Just started using OpenEJB last week - but so far I'm very satisfied!
I've migrated an web application running on Tomcat with GWT on top an
Hibernate in the bottom. So far every things seems to be running, but I need
some advice for fine-tuning. I've read through the documentation, but some
questions still keeps coming... :-)
1. Where should I place 3rd party libs for my application ? If I put them in
WEB-INF/lib the openEJB startup is very very slow - guess it is because it's
scanning all the jars - if I put them in the openEJB/lib folder it starts
very fast. So my question is: Is there a way to tell OpenEJB not to scan the
whole WEB-INF/lib folder but only WEB-INF/classes ??
2. I'm planning to use JMS in the near future.
My plan is to use ActiveMQ in embedded mode, mostly because of the simple
setup and speed (same JVM). But is this OK ?
I've done some testing trying to use MySQL for storing messages, but it
doesn't seem to work (no tables are created in the database scheme?!?!) My
setup is :
-------------------------------------------------------------
<Resource id="My JMS Resource Adapter" type="ActiveMQResourceAdapter">
# Broker configuration URI as defined by ActiveMQ
# see http://activemq.apache.org/broker-configuration-uri.html
BrokerXmlConfig broker:(tcp://localhost:61616)?useJmx=false
# Broker address
ServerUrl vm://localhost?async=true
# DataSource for persistence messages
DataSource jmsDatabase
</Resource>
<Resource id="jmsDatabase" type="DataSource">
JdbcDriver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
JdbcUrl jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/jms
UserName jms
Password jms
ValidationQuery select 1
MinIdle 2
MaxIdle 10
MaxActive 50
MaxWait 10000
InitialSize 2
JtaManaged false
</Resource>
-------------------------------------------------
Best regards
Martin

You know I don't think that takes effect when scanning a webapp
classpath, but it does seem like functionality almost everyone will
need. Maybe we should come up with a nice xml format and push for
some standardization next spec round (Java EE 7).

I think you have to use "vm:" instead of "tcp:" or ActiveMQ won't
really go into embedded mode. There is a "persistent" property that
can be used in the BrokerXmlConfig -- you'd think they wouldn't need
it by the fact that a DataSource was set, but it can't hurt to set it
explicitly.
Try this for your ActiveMQResourceAdapter config:
<Resource id="My JMS Resource Adapter" type="ActiveMQResourceAdapter">
# Broker configuration URI as defined by ActiveMQ
# see http://activemq.apache.org/broker-configuration-uri.html
BrokerXmlConfig broker:()/localhost?persistent=true
# Broker address
ServerUrl vm://localhost?async=true
# DataSource for persistence messages
DataSource jmsDatabase
</Resource>
Let us know if that works out cause we could document this on our site
and hopefully save people some time.

On the same machine as you're running the JMS example, can you run:
mysql -h localhost -u jms -p jms jms
And it works?
If so, try enabling debug logging for the whole ActiveMQ and OpenEJB
and send that.

IMO, you should not put your jars in openejb/lib. It's better to fit servlet
API and put your jars in WEB-INF/lib
By the way, you can exclude jars to avoid full application scanning. By
default, OpenEJB scans all jars.
In the last release (or may be in the trunk), we added a set of jars to
exclude, but you can definitely exclude/include whatever you want.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENEJB-1107
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OPENEJB-1107 --> builtin exclude list
If you need to exclude/include some jars, have a look here
http://openejb.apache.org/3.0/application-discovery-via-the-classpath.html
http://openejb.apache.org/3.0/application-discovery-via-the-classpath.html .

It should work.
Do you have a runnable example?
If so, can you send us a sample to reproduce the issue?
Hope it helps,
