Do you have an example of how that is configured? I suspect that's not your only ObjectFactory, but note, you can put Primitives and Strings into <env-entry> elements and get them into JNDI in a standard way. The standard technique also supports java.lang.Class and any Enum type. As Romain notes, there might be something that can be done in the openejb/tomee.xml jar already using <Resource> to produce things which can then be consumed via @Resource. -David
