Description
Java EE 6 introduced @DataSourceDefinition and Java EE 7 introduced the same way of defining other resources (JMS factory/destination, Mail factory, JCA connectors....).
It would be interesting to have @Alternatives working with these resource definitions. For example you could have a default DS for development :
@DataSourceDefinition(
className = "org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDataSource",
name = "java:global/jdbc/devDS",
user = "dev",
password = "dev",
databaseName = "dev",
properties = {"connectionAttributes=;create=true"}
)
public class DevResources {...}
And another DS that would be used, let say, in production as an alternative :
@Alternative
@DataSourceDefinition(
className = "org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDataSource",
name = "java:global/jdbc/prodDS",
user = "prod",
password = "prod",
databaseName = "prod",
properties = {"connectionAttributes=;create=true"}
)
public class ProdResources {...}
