Define a resource reference in web.xml, then map that to the JBoss jndi name in jboss-web.xml and look it up (using the name defined in web.xml) from the container java:comp/env context.
web.xml: <resource-ref> | <res-ref-name>jdbc/myDS</res-ref-name> | <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type> | <res-auth>Container</res-auth> | </resource-ref> jboss-web.xml: <resource-ref> | <res-ref-name>jdbc/myDS</res-ref-name> | <jndi-name>java:/HypersonicDS</jndi-name> | </resource-ref> Code: InitialContext ic = new InitialContext(); | DataSource ds = (DataSource) ic.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/myDS"); Tim View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3849902#3849902 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3849902 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?
