Кэширование INANINATIONCONTEXT и DataSource в веб-приложении Java EE

Question

В следующем соединении / J ссылки на JDBC / MySQL предлагает мы кэшируем экземпляры INALICCONTEXT и DataSource.Просто сделает его частным статическим экземпляром, решающим кэширование?Не следует беспокоиться о безопасности потоков (если вообще)?Какое лучшее «место» кэширует это для веб-приложения (Restlet + Glassfish / Java EE + MySQL) ??

Есть класс Genericdao, который является root CORT классов доступа к данным, так сказать.Так что только статические экземпляры на самом деле решают проблему?Это заставило бы некоторые из методов быть статическим, что мы не хотим.Предложения ??

Спасибо!

Answer 1

Following up on BalusC's link, I can confirm that we could do the same thing when using Restlet. However, as per the code in the example to get the config instance you are passing in the ServletContext as an argument. Restlet is like 'another' framework that uses Servlets as an adapter to configure itself. So it'll be tricky to pass the ServletContext as an argument from somewhere else in the code (Restlet uses it's own Context object which is conceptually similar to ServletContext)

For my case a static method returning the cached datasource seems to be 'clean enough' but there could be other design/organization approaches.

If you're using JAX-RS, then you can use @Context annotation.

E.g.

@Context
private ServletContext context;

@GET
@Path("whatevers")
public List<Whatever> getWhatevers() {
    DataSource dataSource = Config.getInstance(context).getDataSource();
    // ...
}

---

However, if the @Resource annotation is also supported on your Restlet environment, you could make use of it as good.

@Resource(mappedName="jdbc/MySQLDB")
private DataSource dataSource

---

This is in turn technically better to be placed in an EJB which you in turn inject by @EJB in your webservice.

@Stateless
public class WhateverDAO {

    @Resource(mappedName="jdbc/MySQLDB")
    private DataSource dataSource

    public List<Whatever> list() {
        // ...
    }

}

with

@EJB
private WhateverDAO whateverDAO;

@GET
@Path("whatevers")
public List<Whatever> getWhatevers() {
    return whateverDAO.list();
}
