Sample hibernate.properties for a container-provided datasource

This file first gives the JNDI name of the datasource. The datasource must be configured in the J2EE enterprise application deployment descriptor; this is a vendor-specific setting. Next, you enable Hibernate integration with JTA. Now Hibernate needs to locate the application server’s TransactionManager in order to integrate fully with the container transactions.

hibernate.connection.datasource = java:/comp/env/jdbc/AuctionDB

hibernate.transaction.factory_class = \

net.sf.hibernate.transaction.JTATransactionFactory

hibernate.transaction.manager_lookup_class = \

net.sf.hibernate.transaction.JBossTransactionManagerLookup

hibernate.dialect = net.sf.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect
