getting URL's from JNDI lookup

mlybarger May 3, 2005 9:57 AM

i'm configuring our web application to get URL's from doing a JNDI lookup. i have the resource-ref defined in web.xml, and have the coresponding resource-ref defined in jboss-web.xml. this seems to work, but we would really like to have these definitions outside of the jboss-web.xml.

it would be nice to define them at the server configuration level so that we can deploy application A.war to machine foo which has a url ref pointing to internal.server.com, and also deploy applicaion A.war to machine bar which has a url ref pointing to external.server.com. how can i configure this so that i can deploy the same ear/war to different app servers w/o touching the ear/war?

any thoughts out there? i've heard something about writing a custom mbean to provide the URL's application, but am not sure how that would look.

thanks for the response. this looks like exactly what we're after. i was looking into creating a custom mbean to put my values into the jndi, but will looking into patching this in first.

the need is definately there for configuring url resource ref's outside the war.

the patch seems farily easy to use and setup. we're on 4.0.0 right now.
