Thanks for the reply. What I need is to use jnp as a general purpose naming service. We just need to store up to a hundred entries and only need naming, so, we do not want to get into a separate naming/directory service/server. The following is an example code (based from JNDITutorial). The issue is: after I run this code, and restart jboss, and I lookup, can I get the button? ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// public static void main(String[] args) { Hashtable env = new Hashtable(11); env.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY, "com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory"); env.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL, "ldap://fog.saf.pe-c.com:389/o=JNDITutorial"); try { Context ctx = new InitialContext(env); // Create object to be bound Button b = new Button("Push me2"); // Perform bind ctx.bind("cn=Button2", b); // Check that it is bound Button b2 = (Button)ctx.lookup("cn=Button2"); System.out.println(b2); // Close the context when we're done ctx.close(); } catch (NamingException e) { System.out.println("Operation failed: " + e); } } "Guy Rouillier" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [JBoss-user] persistent bind to jnp possible? eforge.net 05/02/2001 07:01 PM Please respond to jboss-user Not really sure what you are asking, but see my message from yesterday. You can put the jnp into the jndi-name in your jboss.xml deployment descriptor. Because it is in your jar file, it will persist. That will allow that one EJB to be referenced from that jar. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, May 02, 2001 4:50 PM Subject: [JBoss-user] persistent bind to jnp possible? > > Hi, > > Is it possible to bind something to jnp and then shut down/restart jboss, > and can still lookup the bounded info? > e.g., bind some app configuration info into jnp and get it later, even > after restart jboss. > > If it not possible, any work around?
