Friends:
I have the following setup.
A Jar file with a class called DBConnectionUtil that reads a specific string
for lookup "jdbc/windsDS".
This jar is being used inside of Websphere7 and it works fine.
Inside of Tomcat 6, the same context look up for the jndi of jdbc/windsDS
does NOT work.
Tomcat expects
Context parentcontext = new InitialContext();
Context childContext = parentcontext.lookup("java:comp/env");
Datasource ds = childContext.lookup("jdbc/windsDS");
All the xml entries are right since the above snippet works.
I want to make the direct global look up aka jdbc/windsDS to work.
Context parentcontext = new InitialContext();
Datasource ds = context.lookup("jdbc/windsDS");
Is there a way to do jndli direct global lookup ?
