JPAIdentityStore and PC indirection

[torbenjaeger]

i had problems persisting a user to the database unless having my pc named entityManager:

<persistence:managed-persistence-context 
 name="entityManager"
 auto-create="true"
 persistence-unit-jndi-name="java:/myEntityManagerFactory"/>

<security:jpa-identity-store
 user-class="MyUser"
 role-class="MyRole"/>

did i miss sth?

what do you think about having some indirection like

<persistence:managed-persistence-context 
 name="anotherNameForEntityManager"
 auto-create="true"
 persistence-unit-jndi-name="java:/myEntityManagerFactory"/>

<security:jpa-identity-store
 entity-manager="anotherNameForEntityManager"
 user-class="MyUser"
 role-class="MyRole"/>

so that you can map the identity store to whatever PC you'd like?

it's all about init() in JPAIdentityStore.java, right?

   @Create
   public void init()
   {                  
      ...

      if (entityManager == null)
      {
         entityManager = Expressions.instance().createValueExpression("#{entityManager}", EntityManager.class);
      }      
      ...

thx for your time.

This is already supported, just set a value for entity-manager in components.xml:

<security:jpa-identity-store 
  entity-manager="#{otherEntityManager}"
  user-class="org.myapp.User"
  role-class="org.myapp.Role"/>
