JPA persistence.xml should integrate with @DataSourceDefinition and web.xml data-source definition #30
Description
Datasources defined via @DataSourceDefinition allow @resource injection of DataSource objects into application code. However, these data-sources are not integrated with the persistence.xml JPA configuration file. And attempted use of the custom defined DataSource in persistence.xml will result in deployment failure. The EE spec allow for interop between these features:
For a datasource definition:
@DataSourceDefinition(
url = "jdbc:h2:mem:",
className = "org.h2.jdbcx.JdbcDataSource",
name = "java:global/jdbc/h2db",
user = "sa",
password = "")
The following persistence.xml should be valid:
<persistence version="2.1" xmlns="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://xmlns.jcp.org/xml/ns/persistence http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/jsc/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_2_1.xsd">
<persistence-unit name="default" transaction-type="JTA">
<jta-data-source>java:global/jdbc/h2db</jta-data-source>
<exclude-unlisted-classes>false</exclude-unlisted-classes>
</persistence-unit>
</persistence>

I think this is a bug unrelated to the spec. I have this use case working fine: https://java.net/projects/cargotracker/pages/Home.

This is definitely a bug with whatever server OP is using.
See http://henk53.wordpress.com/2012/06/30/the-state-of-datasourcedefinition-in-java-ee + http://henk53.wordpress.com/2012/04/15/jsf2-primefaces3-ejb3-jpa2-integration-project/#step10 and http://jdevelopment.nl/open-source/java-ee-kickoff-app for two other working cases.
If the server happens to be Glassfish, remember that due to a big bug in that you have to copy the JDBC driver to some installation directory of Glassfish itself. See GLASSFISH-19451

There's is definitely something fishy here. Historically this has failed more often and if I'm not misinterpreting things some vendors at least gave (me) the impression that they thought this didn't needed to be supported.
For the current crop of Java EE 7 servers it again fails. See WildFly issue https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-2727 and GlassFish issue GLASSFISH-20944
I think the spec should explicitly say that @DataSourceDefinition and web.xml's data-source definition can be used in persistence.xml and add a TCK test that checks that this is indeed possible for a given implementation.

For the JPA side of this issue see JPA_SPEC-70

When speaking to the various people in charge of JPA integration in these servers, I got the overall impression that they did not believe the spec required this, which is why it does not work on most servers. Thus I moved to file a spec issue that would cause people to do the right thing

The spec does require this. We'll make sure that this is clearer in the future, and add a TCK test for it.

@ldemichiel
We're now almost 2 years later and just wondering, has this TCK test already been added?
glassfishrobot commentedon Apr 25, 2017
This issue was imported from java.net JIRA JAVAEE_SPEC-30
arjantijms commentedon Aug 13, 2018
This time it's more than 2 years later. Maybe if/when the TCK gets transferred we'll finally be able to see if that TCK test was ever added or not.
