<P>The <B>&lt;Resource&gt;</B> element is used to configure a <B>javax.sql.DataSource</B>. It is also used to configure other resources like Timers, Topics, Queues. We will see some examples of using &lt;Resource&gt; to configure a DataSource.</P>
<P>The &lt;Resource&gt; element is designed after @Resource annotation and has similar attributes.</P>
<P>For example, this annotation in your bean:</P>
<DIV class="code"><DIV class="codeContent">
<PRE class="code-java">@Resource(name = <SPAN class="code-quote">&quot;myDerbyDatasource&quot;</SPAN>, type = javax.sql.DataSource.class)</PRE>

<P>Note that in the xml element, the <EM>type</EM> value of <EM>javax.sql.DataSource</EM> can abbreviated to just <EM>DataSource</EM> as follows:</P>

<P>DataSource references in your ejb should get automatically mapped to the Resource you declare. The shortest and easiest rule is that <B>if your reference name matches a Resource in your openejb.xml, that's the one you get</B>.</P>
<P>Alternatively, you can explicitly set them via an openejb-jar.xml. </P>
<P>There are various ways one could obtain a DataSource now. Lets take an example of Derby.</P>
<P>With a Resource declaration in your openejb.xml like this:</P>
<DIV class="code"><DIV class="codeContent">
