[Bug 54665] Provide JNDI support for java.net.URL resources
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54665 --- Comment #3 from Christopher Schultz ch...@christopherschultz.net --- I'm not sure why String - URL wouldn't be cross-platform. WRT licenses, LGPL is incompatible with AL2, so you'd have to get the author to grant the code to the ASF under a different license. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54665 --- Comment #2 from Giovanni Dall'Oglio Risso giovanni.dallog...@addvalue.it --- I'm sorry for this decision. An other reason (that I not mentioned before) is the cross-platform portability: we'd like to develop our software in a minimalistic way, developed and tested with Tomcat, but installable and usable also in other application servers (we can't force our customers to adopt the Tomcat, as you understand...). As far as I know, the URL is managed by everybody else... We'll try with the other containers. But honestly I hope that you rethink this decision... For the second issue (licensing), I can re-write the class, or you can see the (probably better) org.ow2.easybeans.naming.url.URLFactory of library easybeans-naming (that is LGPL) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org

Simply use an environment entry of type String [1] and use that to construct a URL if you really need a URL. That has the added advantage of being more likely to be portable between servlet containers. A secondary issue is that there is no clear license for the referenced code and no indication that the author is willing to submit it to the ASF.
