Question

I looked around their site http://code.google.com/a/apache-extras.org/p/cassandra-jdbc/ but couldn’t find any documentation for configuring a data source bean such as

    <spring:bean id="mySqlDataSource"
         class="com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlXADataSource">
         <spring:property name="url"
              value="jdbc:mysql://${mysql.host}:${mysql.port}/${mysql.database}?user=${mysql.user}&amp;password=${mysql.pwd}" />
    </spring:bean>

Is there any documentation anywhere or does anyone know how to write one?

Answer 1

The CassandraDataSource doesn’t seem to have a default constructor, so you’ll need to pass everything in:

<spring:bean id="cassDataSource"
     class="org.apache.cassandra.cql.jdbc.CassandraDataSource">
     <constructor-arg value="host">
     <constructor-arg type="int" value="port">
     <constructor-arg value="keyspace">
     <constructor-arg value="user">
     <constructor-arg value="password">
     <constructor-arg value="version">
</spring:bean>

(I haven’t tested this, but it’s basically what you’d need to do).
