[Geoserver-devel] Oracle JNDI DataStore

I found two related JIRA entries:

http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-778
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-1324

We are using
- Oracle Spatial and
- JBoss Application Server 4.x

The only "right" way to get a DataSource is through JNDI. But that's not possible right now.

What needs to be done to fix this? I am new to this (GeoTools/GeoServer), but maybe I can help.

Work was done to make this possible at the GeoTools level; not sure how it plays out exactly in the geoserver config user interface.

At the geoserver level we're just aiming for feature parity with the old UI right now, so this isn't on the list. But the idea is definitely that UI improvements will be easier with the new technology, and this should be pretty high on the list for new things. I don't think we've thought about how to do it yet, what the UI would look like, but it should be possible, especially since geotools is now fixed up for it.

Actually it's possible to use JNDI in the old UI provided you
make up the proper factory for it. I have one for postgis sitting
around, and the bugs the user is referring to have one for
Oracle.
I was waiting for the ability to create a module for these
JNDI based factories, but if it's ok with other developers,
I can also fit each one in the respective datastore modules
in GeoTools.

Problem is, I won't be around for a week, so if someone
else wants to pick this up be my guest (I can send over
the patches for postgis along with some unfinished
unit tests).

Cheers
