Hi all,
With JCA 1.5 was introduced the concept of Admin Objects. So now,
you cand deploy in your resource adapter much more thant a
ConnectionFactory;
I used the feature to include in my deployment the InteractionSpec
and ConnectionSpec.
But at lookup time, it sems these objects are passed by
refernce.Which is a serious problem: say client A sets its userName
and password in
the ConnectionSpec. These values get stored in the JNDI instance and
can be read by client B !
How would returning copies of the admin object help with this?
This behavior is not specific to Geronimo. Most (but not all)
application servers produce the same result... Sould not lookup
return a
clone of the Objects ?
I think the spec indicates copies should be returned. We used to
return proxies. I've always wondered what the point of a lot of the
jndi spec was. I've taken the view that the important part of the
spec is for jndi to act like a hashmap and that since our jndi is in-
vm only and not persistent lookup speed is pretty much the most
important bit.
Could you explain in more detail what you don't like about this and
what you want instead?
thanks
