Description Michal Mocnak 2007-04-27 10:42:27 UTC 
Implement new Datasources API for entity classes from db -> like use database
action in enterpise resources has.
Comment 1 Erno Mononen 2007-08-13 16:37:18 UTC 
This will require couple of changes. Firstly, since the j2ee/persistence module is in the ide cluster it has an SPI 
that allows Ejb and Web projects to manage the currently used data source combo box. It seems that the new data sources 
API needs a combo box and a button, so the SPI has to be modified. Secondly, DatasourceUIHelper (in j2ee/utilities) 
that is used by the SPI implementors can handle only a combo and furthermore doesn't use the new UI needed by the new 
API. Thirdly, the new panel for this is in j2ee/ejbcore and therefore can't be reused. So the panel, and preferably all 
the logic for handling data sources with the new API, should be moved from j2ee/ejbcore to j2ee/utilities.
Comment 2 Erno Mononen 2007-08-13 16:38:50 UTC 
Forgot to add that also the new Persistence Unit wizard and the persistence unit panel in the visual editor should be 
changed to use the new API.
Comment 3 Dongmei Cao 2008-11-18 00:32:15 UTC 
From the comments emononen made, it requires lots of changes to use the new API. I would like to know what are the
benifits of using the new API.
