CDO/Hibernate Store/Configuration and Setup

The configuration of the CDO server with the CDO Hibernate Store consists of 2 parts: 1) a cdo-server.xml configuration file, 2) a launch configuration in Eclipse. For this tutorial the CDO server will be started from within Eclipse.

Example Project

This document discusses the setup and configuration of the CDO server. This page assumes that required plugins have been downloaded and installed and that they are correctly loaded/installed after restarting Eclipse.

This page uses the org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.hibernate.server project as an example. This development project can be downloaded from here:

• server: dev.eclipse.org
• main directory: /cvsroot/modeling
• path: org.eclipse.emf/org.eclipse.emf.cdo/examples/org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.hibernate.server

Configuration file

An example configuration file is shown below. It consists of different sections: acceptor definition: defines the communication protocol and port repository: contains CDO properties, Teneo properties and Hibernate properties store: within the repository tag a store is defined (type="hibernate") and a mapping provider is specified (teneo)

Here is the full listing:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<cdoServer>
 
	<!--
	<acceptor type="http"/>
	-->
 
	<acceptor type="tcp" listenAddr="0.0.0.0" port="2036">

</cdoServer>

This file is present in the config folder of the org.eclipse.emf.cdo.examples.hibernate.server project.

Note: as is noted in the config file, the location of the Teneo and Hibernate properties will change in future builds (with backward compatibility support). In the future the Teneo properties are placed within the mappingProvider tag and the Hibernate properties directly within the store tag.

Each of the different property sections is discussed in more detail.
