Hi,
I am having trouble using JNDI under Tomcat to look up
reference type Objects. I have tried converting the Fruit example from the sun
JNDI tutorial to work in a web context.
The problem is that the DirContext.lookup function returns an
object of type java.naming.Reference instead of the object type that you placed
in the directory. The example returns the correct object type as a console app,
but not under Tomcat.
I have tested this on Tomcat 3.2 beta 4 and 6, I have found
that JRun3.0 also displays the same behaviour. Tomcat 3.1 actually works, with
the jar files below stored in the web application's WEB-INF/lib
directory.
I am using jdk1.3
Some notes are that the fscontext.jar & providerutil.jar
are in the folder <java_home>/jre/lib/ext.
Has anyone experienced this problem ? Should I be converting
the reference manually using the object factory? What is the correct location
for fscontext.jar & providerUtil.jar ?
thanks...
