Using the Resource Adapter with an Application Server

The OpenAccess SDK resource adapter can be used with any J2EE 1.3 or higher application server. To use the resource adapter with J2EE 1.4 or higher application servers, it must be used in conjunction with the J2EE Connector Architecture. For more information, refer to Oracle documentation.

In an application server environment, the resource adapter is deployed using a deployment tool. Each RAR file includes a deployment descriptor, which instructs the application server about how to use the resource adapter in an application server environment. The deployment descriptor contains information about the resource adapter, including security and transactional capabilities, and the ManagedConnectionFactory class name. Refer to your application server documentation for details about how to deploy components using the deployment tool.
