Simplified Repository URI format for JNDI lookups
-------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JCR-2771
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-2771
             Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: jackrabbit-jcr-commons
            Reporter: Jukka Zitting
            Priority: Minor


The JndiRepositoryFactory class (together with JcrUtils) currently supports the 
following repository URI formats:

    JcrUtils.getRepository("jndi:name-of-repository");
    
JcrUtils.getRepository("jndi://ignored?org.apache.jackrabbit.repository.jndi.name=name-of-repository&other-parameters");

The first uri formats allows no extra JNDI environment settings to be passed 
in, and the second one is pretty verbose and simply ignores the authority and 
path parts of the URI.

I'd like to add support for the following simplified format that makes it easy 
to provide the repository name along with the initial context factory from 
which the name is to be looked up:

    JcrUtils.getRepository("jndi://initial-context-factory/name-of-repository");

Extra JNDI environment settings could still be included as additional query 
parameters. Backwards compatibility with the previous formats would be 
guaranteed based on the presence or absence of the 
org.apache.jackrabbit.repository.jndi.name parameter in hierarchical URIs.
