Datasources

[ferditheo]

Hi,

I am configuring datasources, I modified the standalone.xml and added a directory inside modules containing ojdbc14.jar and module.xml as specified in some topics here... and it seems to work well but there is some things I can't get...

Here is my module.xml:

<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.0" name="com.oracle.ojdbc14">

  <resources>

    <resource-root path="ojdbc14.jar"/>

  </resources>

   <dependencies>

     <module name="javax.api"/>

     <module name="javax.transaction.api"/>

   </dependencies>

</module>

why should I specify the dependencies?

Thanks.

Because the module system works on explicit dependencies (transitively). You don't get anything "automatically" to keep the deps to a minimum. With the exception of what the deployment scanner concludes your application uses.
