Thanks Guy, for the response. That is the way I used to do things. However,
there is code in org.jboss.tm.usertx.client.ClientUserTransaction that calls new
InitialContext()
when you are trying to use a transaction from Tomcat. If I don't use jndi.properties
then the
client transaction will not work. Much of the JBoss development is geared toward
embedded
Tomcat/Jetty so I don't know whether this issue would qualify for a bug. I am
certainly finding
it difficult to be able to separate Tomcat and JBoss. Looks like I will be limited to
a physical
two-tier application even if I have written the code as three-tier or n-tier.
