HSQL config

[imm102]

Hi,

Ive been trying to get a simple EJB that accesses the database working but having a lot of trouble. Im using the default hypersonic database and ive changed nothing except for the hsqldb-ds.xml file following the getting started guide.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!-- The Hypersonic embedded database JCA connection factory config

<datasources>
 <local-tx-datasource>

 <!-- The jndi name of the DataSource, it is prefixed with java:/ -->
 <!-- Datasources are not available outside the virtual machine -->
 <jndi-name>DefaultDS</jndi-name>

 <!-- for tcp connection, allowing other processes to use the hsqldb
 database. This requires the org.jboss.jdbc.HypersonicDatabase mbean.-->
 <connection-url>jdbc:hsqldb:hsql://localhost:1701</connection-url>

 <!-- for totally in-memory db, not saved when jboss stops.

 <connection-url>jdbc:hsqldb:${jboss.server.data.dir}${/}hypersonic${/}localDB</connection-url>

 <!-- The driver class -->
 <driver-class>org.hsqldb.jdbcDriver</driver-class>

 <!-- This mbean can be used when using in process persistent hypersonic -->

 </local-tx-datasource>

 <!-- This mbean should be used only when using tcp connections. Uncomment

 <mbean code="org.jboss.jdbc.HypersonicDatabase"
 name="jboss:service=Hypersonic">
 <attribute name="Port">1701</attribute>
 <attribute name="Silent">true</attribute>
 <attribute name="Database">default</attribute>
 <attribute name="Trace">false</attribute>
 <attribute name="No_system_exit">true</attribute>
 </mbean>

 <!-- This mbean can be used when using in process persistent db -->
 <mbean code="org.jboss.jdbc.HypersonicDatabase"
 name="jboss:service=Hypersonic,database=localDB">
 <attribute name="Database">localDB</attribute>
 <attribute name="InProcessMode">true</attribute>
 </mbean>
</datasources>

Im asking a few questions here so bare with me. The guide says that the second to last mbean should be uncommented. Should the last one be commented out as it seems to conflict or does it not matter. There is also another url-connection tab

<connection-url>jdbc:hsqldb:${jboss.server.data.dir}${/}hypersonic${/}localDB</connection-url>

should this be commented out? does hsql support primary keys? ive tried to add on in a create statement and i end up with unexpected token errors.

Also is the default datasource referenced by the jndi name java:/DefaultDS or java:DefaultDS or will either do. Im just asking because the console output displays one name and the xml displays another.

Im new at this so any help would be great. :)
