That said, it's not unusual to see a "fake" XADataSource
impleemntation that wraps a non-XA DataSource and works fine as long as

1) It's the only non-real XADataSource AND it's invoked last in the
prepare phase of the transaction

- or -

2) No resource ever fails to prepare

That's pretty chancy, but it beats nothing at all. You can
implement one of these yourself with some research into the JDBC2 optional
package, or take it from one of the open-source app servers or something.
