Seam on Websphere 6.x backed by DB2?

[grettke_spdr]

Hi folks,

We can't do EJB 3.0 and are looking at non EJB < 3.0 solutions.

Anyone tried out Seam on Websphere 6.x backed by DB2?

Best wishes,

Grant

It works on was v6.1.0.7,

...but:
- You have to put all your code in a war (we were not able to make it work by splitting the code between a war and an utility jar...if you know how to do, tell us please )
- You have to use MyFaces instead of the the JSF 1.1 implementation included with was v6.1. Search on "MyFaces" in the was support page and find the paper from IBM explaining how to make MyFaces work with was v6.1
- You must use PARENT_LAST on BOTH ear and war classloader amd put jboss* libs in ot WEB-INF/lib

oups...
I forgot the hibernate patch to make hibernate work with seam.
See bug HHH-2160 in hibernate
(http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2160)
This bug has been reported with was 6.0.2.15 + DB2 9.1, we also have it with was 6.1.0.7 + db2 v8.2.7
