Penrose 0.9.8 Adapters

Adapters provides a way to access resources that are going to be mapped into the virtual directory. Adapters configuration can be found in PENROSE_HOME/conf/server.xml.

<adapter name="JDBC">
  <adapter-class>org.safehaus.penrose.connector.JDBCAdapter</adapter-class>
</adapter>

<adapter name="JNDI">
  <adapter-class>org.safehaus.penrose.connector.JNDIAdapter</adapter-class>
</adapter>

To define an adapter, you need to specify the following values:

Name
Specify the name of the adapter. This will be used in defining connections.

Class
Specify the class name of the adapter.

Penrose provides two built-in adapters:

JDBC Adapter
JNDI Adapter

If you implement your own adapter, put the jar file containing your classes into PENROSE_HOME/lib, then add an adaptor definition like above.
