ManagedConnectionFactory Life Cycle

[gmkumar2005]

Hi,

I deploy the rar file by placing it in the deployment folder in jboss as 7. Later deploy my war file.

This connector in bound to a jNDI location by definition inside standalone.xml.

When it is deployed the createConnectionFactory(ConnectionManager cm) is executed by default.

I do some house keeping with help of  ClassLoader contextClassLoader = Thread.currentThread().getContextClassLoader();

This method is again executed when i try to access the adapter using an ejb.

Problem is initally at the time of loading the classloader is null. Later it has a value when called from ejb. Effectively my housekeeping fails.

Question :

1) createConnectionFactory(ConnectionManager cm) is executed at the time of deployment => is this the proper behaviour ?

2) How can I configure ironJacamar not to execute this method at the time of deployment ?

Thanks

When it is deployed the createConnectionFactory(ConnectionManager cm) is executed by default.

Of course - that is the way the ConnectionFactory is created, and bound into JNDI.

You should never use the thread context classloader. Use the classloader that defined your deployment:

ClassLoader cl = MyManagedConnectionFactory.class.getClassLoader();

This method is again executed when i try to access the adapter using an ejb.

Problem is initally at the time of loading the classloader is null. Later it has a value when called from ejb. Effectively my housekeeping fails.

Are you sure, that it is the same ConnectionFactory that you reference ? Post your ra.xml and <resource-adapter> subsystem. And what the EJB does...

And "housekeeping" sounds very scary to me... Post your code

Thanks jesper it worked. Basically the classloader used at the time of deployment has to be same as the one used at runtime. So now I pass

ClassLoader cl = MyManagedConnectionFactory.class.getClassLoader();
