Integration TEsts / Use of other connections

[clebert.suconic]

I have this MDB:

http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/messaging/projects/jms-integration/src/main/org/jboss/test/jms/integration/support/ejb20/TestMessageDriven.java
And I'm running this on JBoss-4.0.4... with a messaging configuration created by our utils.

On ejbCreate I'm using other resources such as opening a new connection, as I will answer messages through an answering queue:

 public void ejbCreate() throws EJBException
 {
 try
 {
 ctx = new InitialContext();
 cf = (XAConnectionFactory) ctx.lookup(CONNECTION_FACTORY);
 conn = cf.createXAConnection();
 //ts = messageContext.getTimerService();
 }
 catch (NamingException e)
 {
 throw new EJBException(e);
 }
 catch (JMSException e)
 {
 throw new EJBException(e);
 }

 }

When I run this, I'm getting a classCastException:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.jboss.resource.adapter.jms.JmsConnectionFactoryImpl

This is bound to java:/JmsXA


Is this a bug, or I am missing a config here?

java:/JmsXA wouldn't give me a XAConnectionFactory...

Tim helped me understand this.

What is the explanation for why java:/JmsXA would not provide an XAConnectionFactory?

[clebert.suconic]

JCA treats XA underneath through a wrapper.

You will receive an instance of Connection, and JCA would enlist transactions automatically for you. With XAConnection you would have to enslist XA/transactions yourself.
