    Configuration of JCA Inflow Resource Adapter

    garethevans

      I'm using jboss4.0.5.GA to connect to a legacy system via tcp. To do this I'm using a JCA inflow resource connected to an MDB. This is currently working as expected. My question how can I configure this in a maintainable way?

      Currently the configuration sits within the ejb-jar.xml and jboss.xml files that are built into my ear file. An extract of my ejb-jar file is shown below:

      <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>txPort</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>10001</activation-config-property-value>
       </activation-config-property>
      
       <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>rxPort</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>10002</activation-config-property-value>
       </activation-config-property>
      
       <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>acknowledgementTimeout</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>2000</activation-config-property-value>
       </activation-config-property>
      
       <activation-config-property>
       <activation-config-property-name>numberOfRetries</activation-config-property-name>
       <activation-config-property-value>3</activation-config-property-value>
       </activation-config-property>
      


      Depending on customer requirements, I will need to change the port numbers etc, and even deploy more that one of these per install. Currently the only way i can find to do this is to change the jboss.xml and the ejb-jar.xml file.

      Is there any way of configuring these outside of an ear file?

      Can I configure this within a -ds.xml file even though I'm only using an inflow resource adapter?

      Could I deploy these using a -service.xml file?

      Thanks,

      Gareth
