Application configuration

[maggo28]

Hallo,

I'm new in JavaEE and JBoss AS 7. I have a question about configurating an application within JBoss AS.

With JNDI it is typically to configure JDBC Datasources for using it in JPA. My question ist, how can I configure custom information to handle different enviroments like development and production?

I like to configure IPs for my MongoDB servers. I don't like to handle it in my sourcode on check the servers ip address.

Is there a possibility for my problem?

Thanks and regards

Marco

You might have a TestAppDatasource and ProdAppDatasource defined on the instance and use build-time filtering (e.g. maven parameters) for hooking up the application to the correct datasource.

A more practical scenario would be to have separate instances for test and production with both having a AppDatasource (pointing to test DB on test AS and prod DB on prod AS). An application deployed on the server would then have access to the correct DB
