XADatasource

[sameer_inn]

i have used XADataSource with non-xa driver ie
'OracleDriver' for oracle 8i under weblogic it's working fine

when i used the same configuration like
under jboss3.2.0 i have edited oracle-xa-ds.xml
file and
instead of specifying XADriver i have specified
<xa-datasource-class>oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</xa-datasource-class>

it's throwing java.lang.ClassCastException: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver.

could u tell me wheather we can used non-XaDriver
for XADataSource under jboss as it's possible in weblogic?

From your description I would guess that wl is solving the "how do I use a non-xa database" problem the way jboss did in 2.x, by wrapping it in a fake xa datasource.

In jboss 3.x+ we use the local transaction jca wrapper for non-xa drivers. So, use oracle-ds.xml not oracle-xa-ds.xml.

Providing a wrapper that exposes an XAResource does not give the underlying driver xa semantics, no matter how you do it. If you need 2pc, use the oracle xa driver.
