XML Schemas: Best Practices

hibernate.properties and hibernate.cfg.xml perform the same configuration functions, if hibernate.cfg.xml exists it takes precedence over hibernate.properties. The configurations can include Datastore, SessionFactory, Connection Pool, Transactions, and Cache Provider. Much if not all of this can also be specified in the persistence.xml and the *-ds.xml. Generally the persistence.xml specifies only the persistence unit name, jndi-name, mode (create, drop, etc.) for an EE application and everything in a standalone application. Generally the *-ds.xml specifies the data source connection parameters, jdbc url, driver class, credentials, connection test parameter, provider type (Oracle, MySQL, etc.). Generally the hibernate.cfg.xml specifies the others. hibernate.cfg.xml is placed in WEB-INF/classes persistence.xml is placed in META-INF in jar with entity beans Hibernate Quickly

To connect visualgc remotely you need to be running jstatd on the server to be monitored. Create a jstatd.all.policy containing: grant codebase "file:${java.home}/../lib/tools.jar" { permission java.security.AllPermission; }; Set and export the JAVA_HOME environment property and start jstatd with: nohup jstatd -J-Djava.security.policy=jstatd.all.policy > jstatd.out 2>jstatd.err & The default port is 1099. Either get the pid from the server or start JConsole to get it. In JConsole int Remote process enter server:port and a username and password if you set authentication to true below. Ah yes, you will have to have started the Java process with the following environment (but should be using JConsole for monitoring and debugging anyway): -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=11099 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false When JConsole starts, click on the VM Summary tab. This shows you many details about the ...
