Hi PMC, This is to inform I'm about to create a new project under the plugin/arcsde umbrella.
I am developing JNDI support for the ArcSDE module. But as ArcSDE is not jdbc related, there's no JNDI ObjectFactory that can deal with it (as opposed to javax.sql.DataSource for which J2EE containers come already shipped with an ObjectFactory for, or rather you need to set the specific database jars on the container's common class loader). So the way to allow an ArcSDE connection config or even an ArcSDE connection pool out of a JNDI context, is to provide a custom javax.naming.ObjectFactory to be placed on the container's common class loader (hence visible both to the container and the web applications). Having my ObjectFactory on the same jar than the rest of the plugin doesn't work at least I put all the plugin dependencies on the common classloader to (eg, mv webapps/geoserver/WEB-INF/lib/*jar lib/), which is less than optimal. Hence the need for a separate jar. If any objections, please speak out soon.
