Taking TOTD #121 forward, this blog explains how to create a JPA Persistence Unit for a MySQL sample database and package it as a library. This JAR file can then be easily included in other web applications.

Lets get started!

1. Configure GlassFish for using the MySQL sample database (sakila) as described in TOTD #121.
2. Add the GlassFish instance in NetBeans IDE using "Services" panel.
3. Create JPA entities using NetBeans IDE.
   1. Create a Java class library:

This blog clearly explains how to configure the MySQL sample database (sakila) with GlassFish. Even though the instructions use a specific database but should work for other databases (such as Oracle, JavaDB, PostgreSQL, and others) as well. The second half of the blog provide specific syntax for the Oracle sample database.

1. Download sakila sample database and unzip the archive.
2. Install the database as described here - basically load and run "sakila-schema.sql" and "sakila-data.sql" extracted from the archive.
3. Create a new MySQL user account using MySQL CLI Admin and assign the privileges

This entry is a follow up to TOTD #95 and shows how to use the recent integrations of JSR 299 in GlassFish v3 to convert a JSF managed bean to a JSR 299 bean (aka Web Beans). The TOTD #95 describes a simple Java EE 6 web application that uses Java Server Faces 2.0 components for displaying the results of a database query conducted by EJB 3.1 and JPA 2.0 classes.
