    Seam v1.2.1 examples question

    suryad

      Hi all,

      I am very very new to Seam but it is a heck of a framework! I had a quick question. I am using Tomcat 6.0 to run the examples and it is working fine. I figured out the classloader issue with the el-api.jar and besides that everything is working fine.

      I had a question though. I noticed that first off there is no admin webapp for Tomcat 6. like there used to be for 5.5 so I cant look up certain configuration information easily. I was wondering if one of you could point me to the right direction of where I could find more information of the datasource being used with the sample apps provided. I am guessing it is using hsqld db. I just wanted to know if I could swap it over for MySQL 5.1 for example and see if I got it to work. Any pointers?

          Yes, it's hsql. Follow the instructions in the hibernate entitymanager/hibernate core reference manual for changing the database to another. N.B. seam-gen asks you questions about your database when you create a project

            Thanks! I was not using seam-gen as of yet to create the projects. For now so I can understand better I am trying to recreate the hello world example from scratch by myself and see if I can get it up and running. My thought is that this way I would be better able to understand the configuration files since I will have to write them from scratch on my own using the examples as a help resource. So far in the configuration files in the examples that come with Seam 1.2.1 GA have not indicated anything in the form of a datasource.
