Yes you can lookup a datasource. Make sure the JNDI name is correct. If you can view
your datasource from the jndi view, you should be able to look it up.
I think obtaining the datasource only makes sense on the server. Since server manages
the connection pool and transactions. If you are doing
You can't lookup a JBoss datasource outside JBoss. The JNDI lookup is only possible
within the container (java:/ prefix).

mlange ... is there any way out of this?
actually my issue is that I need to keep passwords secured and out of the reach of the
general developers.
web applications should not have this issue for my side. It is because some of our
background processes runs as java clients and we would like to
btw,
is there such a thing as a JNDI datasource on the global namespace? How do I set it up

ok .. don't bother answering the questions above ... this is what I conclude :
1) It is virtually impossible to get a JNDI Datasource.
2) It is impractical also due to the J2EE implementation. EJBs would be the way to go
if we need data. Since data access will fall within the Business Layer, it

Yea... that doesn't help much. I saw the following in Chapter 31...

The java:comp/env portion of the logical name is the

JBoss specifically puts the DataSource bindings in the java:/ namespace of JNDI to
make it inaccessible to external VMs, since by definition, they cannot use any objects
bound in that space.
In the case of EJBs, you have two options. You can reference the java:/ namespace
directly to
