cleartext password in jboss-beans.xml

[rlao]

I am looking for a way to avoid putting a cleartext password in my jboss-beans.xml file for the microcontainer. Can someone point me to information on how to put encrypted password which can be decrypted later before being used to connect to the database (I put an ! in front of each line as otherwise, they don't get displayed correctly. thank you for your help

...
<!bean name="DatasourceFactory" class="org.jboss.seam.microcontainer.DataSourceFactory">
<!property name="driverClass">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
<!property name="connectionUrl">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db
<!property name="userName">root
<!property name="password">password
<!property name="jndiName">java:/hibernateDatasource
<!property name="transactionManager">
<!inject bean="TransactionManager" />
<!/property>

Use can try using value-factory injection into password property. And just hide/decrypt the password in that value bean.

Thank you for your reply.

What I ended doing is to create a subclass of microcontainer and handle the password myself. That seems to work.
