In JBoss, If i create an object and put it into JNDI like this, how do i lookup and get a reference to that object from a remote machine..
Here's how i'm binding the object...
ServiceSettings ss = new ServiceSettings();
ss.setUid("bob");
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
ctx.bind("SETTINGS", ss);
ON THE REMOTE MACHINE (with jndi.properties pointing to the jboss server)
I wanted to do this but apparently this does not work because it will throw
a ClassCastException because a different JVM created the object.
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
ServiceSettings ss = (ServiceSettings) ctx.lookup("SETTINGS");
Does anyone use JNDI to store objects that need to get
used by remote servers (JVM's). These objects are NOT EJBs. Just plain-old
objects. Or, is JNDI not meant for making objects available to remote JVMs
like this?
thanks!
