How to set JDBC Data Sources in Oracle MapViewer for Oracle database 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.1)

Question

How to set JDBC Data Sources in Oracle MapViewer for Oracle database 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.1)?
The following is my configuration in the conf\mapViewerConfig.xml:
<map_data_source name="mvdemo12"
jdbc_host="127.0.0.1"
jdbc_sid="orcl12c1"
jdbc_port="1522"
jdbc_user="mvdemo"
jdbc_password="7OVl2rJ+hOYxG5T3vKJQb+hW4NPgy9EN"
jdbc_mode="thin"
number_of_mappers="3"
allow_jdbc_theme_based_foi="true"
editable="true"/>
<!--  ****  -->
But it does not work.
After use "sqlplus mvdemo/[email protected]:1522/pdborcl", it connected to the Oracle database 12c.
Does anyone know it?
Thanks,

For 11.1.1.7.1 use the syntax for jdbc_sid, i.e.
//mypdb1.foo.com as described in the README,
- MapViewer native (non-container) data sources can now use database service name in place of SID. To supply a db service name, you will use the same jdbc_sid attribute, but specify the service name with double slashes in front, such as follows:
  <map_data_source name="myds"
    jdbc_host="foo.com"
    jdbc_sid="//mypdb1.foo.com"
    jdbc_port="1522"
  />
For 11.1.1.7.0 use a container_ds instead.
i.e. instead of using
<map_data_source name="my_12c_test"
                   jdbc_host="mydbinstance"
                   jdbc_sid="pdborcl12c"
                   jdbc_port="1522"
                   jdbc_user="mytestuser"
                   jdbc_password="m2E7T48U3LfRjKwR0YFETQcjNb4gCMLG8/X0KWjO00Q="
                   jdbc_mode="thin"
                   number_of_mappers="6"
                   allow_jdbc_theme_based_foi="false"
                   editable="false"
   />
use
  <map_data_source name="my_12c_test"
                   container_ds="jdbc/db12c"
                   number_of_mappers="6"
                   allow_jdbc_theme_based_foi="false"
                   editable="false"
   />
In my case the Glassfish 3.1.2.2 JDBC connection pool definition was
Property
url  jdbc:oracle:thin:@mydbinstance:1522/pdborcl12c.rest_of.service.name
Uncheck the Wrap JDBC Objects option in Advanced panel, i.e. the Edit JDBC Connection Pool Advanced properties page.
Add a JDBC resource for that newly created pool
Use that in mapviewerconfig.xml as above
