I have done something similar, which may be helpful or of interest to you. For our unit tests, I have used the standard JNDI jars from Tomcat (naming-factory, naming-factory-dbcp, naming-resources) and in the BaseTestCase (extends junit.framework.TestCase) I create and load the JNDI context from a property file. This allows the rest of the classes-under-test to function as if they were running under the Tomcat container and allows for the regular and complete JNDI lookup of all our DataSources. I used to use the JavaRanch jndi helper but it only supports a single DataSource. I would be happy to share the code with anyone who may want it. It's 200+ lines of code, and I wouldn't post the whole thing to the list, so send me e-mail off-list if you want a copy. > direction > of the source code to review and also any "advanced" JNDI tutorials that > teach you how to bind to a context that can be reused by external > resources > (meaning another JVM). For one JVM to see or provide JNDI lookups for another would require a network/port aware JNDI scheme. I'm not aware of one, but wouldn't be surprised if one exists either. > > Also, has anyone seen or done this type of solution before? > > Thank you, > > -- > Marc Farrow Tim --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
