Embedded EJB 3.0 & Eclipse problem
I'm trying to run embedded EJB 3.0 as an eclipse plugin, and I'm having a problem with the EntityManager.
Here is the setup:
Plugin com.osc.core.ejb:
I created a plugin project and copied the entire lib drectory from the EJB 3.0 embedded download into the root of that project. I added every jar file to the classpath in the runtime section of the MANIFEST.MF. I also exported every package. I also added:
Eclipse-BuddyPolicy: registered
to the MANIFEST.MF by hand
Plugin com.osc.proto:
I created a plugin and added com.osc.core.ejb as a dependency in the MANIFEST.MF. I copied the entire conf directory from the EJF 3.0 embedded download into the root of that project. I added the conf directory to the classpath in the runtime sectio of the MANIFEST.MF. I also added the buddy registry entry and "." to the classpath by hand so that I have:
Eclipse-RegisterBuddy: com.osc.core.ejb
Bundle-classPath: conf/,
.
in the MANIFEST.MF
I created (in com.osc.proto) the following entity bean:
package com.osc.proto;
import java.io.Serializable;
import javax.persistence.Basic;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import javax.persistence.GenerationType;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Table;
@Entity
@Table(name="USERS")
public class User implements Serializable
{
public int getId()
{
return id;
}
public void setId(int id)
{
this.id = id;
}
public String getName()
{
return name;
}
public void setName(String name)
{
this.name = name;
}
@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO)
private int id;
@Basic
private String name;
private static final long serialVersionUID = -49617049545463116L;
}
I created the following platform runnable extension:
package com.osc.proto;
import javax.persistence.EntityManager;
import javax.persistence.PersistenceContext;
import org.eclipse.core.runtime.IPlatformRunnable;
public class PlatformRunnable implements IPlatformRunnable
{
public Object run(Object args) throws Exception
{
System.out.println("Starting application");
User user = new User();
user.setName("Bryan");
System.out.println("Persisting user");
manager.persist(user);
System.out.println("All done");
return null;
}
@PersistenceContext(unitName="test")
public EntityManager manager;
}
In the start method of the activator, I have:
public void start(BundleContext context) throws Exception {
super.start(context);
System.out.println("Starting embedded EJB3");
EJB3StandaloneBootstrap.boot(null);
EJB3StandaloneBootstrap.scanClasspath();
try
{
Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("test");
}
catch (Exception e)
{
System.out.println(e);
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
I have the following persistence.xml in the META-INF folder of that plugin:
<persistence> <persistence-unit name="test"> <jta-data-source>java:/DefaultDS</jta-data-source> <properties> <property name="hibernate.hbm2ddl.auto" value="create-drop"/> </properties> </persistence-unit> </persistence>
When I run the platform runnable, I get the following exception when the activator starts and attempts to create the entity manager factory:
Starting embedded EJB3

I tried following the simple tutorial bundled with the EJB 3.0 embedded download, and not create an entity manager factory, but when I tried to persist my entity bean with the EntityManager, I got a null pointer exception when calling manager.persist(user).
I poked around and found a section in the hibernate docs that says you have to call createEntityManagerFactory() to bootstrap the entity manager. I added that call and that's where I get an exception.
1. When using the EJB 3.0 embedded code, do I really have to call createEntitymanagerFactory()? Why doesn't the tutorial code do this?
2. Why am I getting an exception when I call createEntityManagerFactory()?
