Standalone application using jndi jboss datasource

[schuller007]

Hello,

I have a stand-alone java rich client application that makes use of hibernate.
Is it possible to configure a data source in JBOSS and configure hibernate on the client side to use it via JNDI?

Any samples? Gotchas? Sample hibernate property files?

Thanks in advance,
Richard

http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ConfigDataSources talks about remote configuration. Its slow, and not all driver capabilities are necessarily exposed.

Scott,

Thanks for the reply. Considering the fact that remote data source is slow, would retrieving data through web services be a better approach?

That might be trading slow for slower. Look at ejb3.
