Equivalent to <metadata> <type-mapping> in JB7?

[bcantrick]

I'm back! Didja miss me? ;]

I'm still porting a (large) web app from JB5 to 7. I've come across several datasources that have:

	<metadata>
	<type-mapping>mySQL</type-mapping>
	</metadata>

...in them.

I've tried searching the reading docs, but I'm obviously missing something. I can't find any equivalent to this in JB7. What am I missing here? Did type-mapping just go away? Did it become unnecessary?

The type-mapping in a datasource file was used for EJB2.x entity beans (and I think other components in JBoss AS) which created tables/queries using that datasource. In AS7, you don't set it in the datasource configuration and instead you can set it in the deployment descriptor of the relevant component (for EJB2.x entity beans, it's jbosscmp-jdbc.xml).

Thanks much!
