FWIW (if it might help others), I cheated and did this:
package org.apache.cayenne.conf;
public class Config
{
public static void configureCayenne()
{
DefaultConfiguration conf = new DefaultConfiguration();
conf.locator.setSkipAbsolutePath(false);
Configuration.initializeSharedConfiguration(conf);
}
}
Then my cayenne.xml could say:
datasource="/path/to/dbcp.properties"
This seems hackish, but works. I had to create my config class in
Cayenne's package space because the locator variable is protected and
I didn't see a way to get it to set the path properties otherwise.
