RAR classloading inversion

[ad-rocha]

Hi all,

I know that I can use jboss-web.xml in WAR applications and jboss-app.xml in EAR in order to configure classoading.

But how about RAR files? is that a way to do this?

Thanks,

Andre

There is not direct way to do so for Jboss4.x series but you should be able to do it via jboss-classloading.xml in Jboss5.

Hi Vicky,

Thank you for your reply.

I'm using JBoss 5 :-) Where can I find more details about this approach?

Regards,

Andre

I found some tips here: http://java.dzone.com/articles/jboss-microcontainer-classloading, but I still don't know how to use jboss-classloading.xml in RAR files...

Any idea?

Thanks again,

Andre

Just place the jboss-classloading.xml inside the RAR/META-INF and see if the corresponding classloading domain as defined in the jboss-classloading.xml gets created.
Also the RAR deployment details via the jmx-console should point to the domain name as specified in the jboss-classloading.xml.

PS: I have not tried all this, let me know if you don't get things working I will give it a try.

Env:
- JBoss AS 5.1.0.GA
- JDK 1.6.0_12
- Windows XP

I'm trying to create a rar for the filesystem jca example that I pointed to in my other post The rar gets deployed, but when I try to create a corresponding -service.xml file, I get classloading errors.

The error I get is :

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.XATxConnectionManager

The logging (on level trace for the classloader) when deploying the fs-service.xml file, the fs-service.xml file itself are given below.

It does not make a difference if I deploy this either in 'deploy' or in e.g. 'deploy/fs'.

My fs-service.xml file

Now I also read the DZone article about classloading and tried a jboss-classloading.xml file: (the 'big-ball-o-mud')

<classloading xmlns="urn:jboss:classloading:1.0"
 domain="IsolatedDomain"
 export-all="NON_EMPTY"
 import-all="true">
</classloading>

and put this in META-INF in my RAR file.

The Error is the same, but I do see differences in the classloading:

In both situations it finds the class initally on a 'parent' level, but filters it out ('blacklisted' in te second case). I tried many different configurations of jboss-classloading.xml but without sucess.

Does anybody have an idea what I do wrong?

[jaikiran]

<mbean code="org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.XATxConnectionManager"

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.XATxConnectionManager

That looks like a genuine CNFE and not related to any classloading configurations. I don't see that class being shipped in the AS. Infact, i see a thread where a user has mentioned that it's not even shipped in AS-4.2.x (actually the LocalTxConnectionManager) http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4063708

[kukeltje]

Yes, I noticed the relation ;-) In the debug/trace logging, you can see it is found, at least that was my interpretation, in combination with things like 'blacklisted' etc... but that could be 'matching generic filters e.g. org.jboss.* ;-(

I read many posts about this subject, but the one you refer to was not one of them, thanks.

And I did notice of the JBoss JCA example on the internet was for 4.2 but I saw it in some 5.0 docs as well. It might be that it is indeed just not there (anymore). I'll try to find out, thanks. (LocalTx, NoTx also do not work). Makes me wonder though what the alternative is. Tx? I do want to use 'pooling' in my RAR.

Thanks again.

In JBoss4.x the xsl deployer creates a set of MBeans which contains the JCA infrastruture MBeans(pooling/tm), the same set of MBeans can be configured explicitly in service( -service.xml file) also.
In older version of JBoss somewhere in JBoss3 days the datasource deployment was not done using -ds.xml but by deploying the service i.e -service.xml.
The -ds.xml configuration was easier than the -service.xml pattern which would simply contain the mbean definitions.
It seems you wanted to deploy the RA with the corresponding -service.xml and not with -ds.xml pattern.
You should be able to search the entry as "DEBUG [org.jboss.deployment.XSLSubDeployer] transformed into doc:" in the JBoss4.* , it would contain the generated xml which would be deployed by the service deployer.
With JBoss5 there is no xsl transformation and you would not see the same in the server.log.

So with JBoss4 you have
-ds.xml --xsl transformation--> -service.xml ----> 4 Means per -ds.xml configuration

and with JBoss5 you will have
-ds.xml ---------------------------------------------------> 4 Means per -ds.xml configuration

In Jboss4 the xsl transformation creates the contents of -service.xml which can been seen in server.log e.g

DEBUG [org.jboss.deployment.XSLSubDeployer] transformed into doc: <server>
 <mbean code='org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.TxConnectionManager' display-name='ConnectionManager for DataSource OracleDS' name='jboss.jca:service=LocalTxCM,name=OracleDS'>
 <attribute name='TrackConnectionByTx'>true</attribute>
 <attribute name='LocalTransactions'>true</attribute>
 <depends optional-attribute-name='ManagedConnectionPool'>

You could also deploy the JCA infrastructure via the -service.xml and avoid xsl transformation, but this is difficult to manage and thus the -ds.xmll deployment notion was introduced.

With Jboss5 I would not recommend you to deploy the -service.xml and would recommend to write -ds.xml defining the connection factories as explained in the jca docs here
http://docs.jboss.org/jbossas/jboss4guide/r5/html/

And if you still want to use the -service.xml pattern which was used in Jboss3 days(IIRC) then you should use org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.TxConnectionManager entry instead of
org.jboss.resource.connectionmanager.XATxConnectionManager

To have better understanding of what MBean should be in the -service.xml I would recommend you to take a look at the xml getting generated in server.xml from the xsl transformation. You can search for "DEBUG [org.jboss.deployment.XSLSubDeployer] transformed into doc: " in server.log.

[kukeltje]

Ok this helps... I did know about the transformations of -ds.xml to -service.xml but still was under the impression a basic -service.xml, overridden (where needed) with the generated one.

The docs you refer to (and later versions) are what I used. Read them from front to back and reverse, top-left to bottom right and reverse. These are also the docs that mention XATxConnectionManager class, so that is why I still thought it was needed. That confuses a lot, getting refered (not specifically by you, more in general) to use these docs but if the info in it is 'obsolete' (there is a JBoss 5 doc which also still has this chapter)

I'll certainly go for the JBoss 5 only solution, but trying the TXConnectionManager first is my quickest win.

Thanks again, I'll make sure to blog about this if I get it to work (and I do not see a reason why I wouldn't)

Yes I agree that the documents which I had pointed are obsolete, the XATxConnectionManager is no longer used in latest JBoss4.
And if this is present in the JBoss5 docs it needs to be corrected there !
