jndi lookup for persistence unit

[mikedanese]

followed a bunch of examples, put persistence.xml in META-INF folder.

?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?
persistence version="1.0" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/persistence/persistence_1_0.xsd"
persistence-unit name="alertnet2" transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL"
provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider
jta-data-source>jdbc/mySQL</jta-data-source
class>com.ha.alertnet.user.PUserStx</class
properties
property name="hibernate.connection.url" value="jdbc:mysql://10.10.10.115:3306/alertnet2"
property name="hibernate.connection.driver_class" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"/
property name="hibernate.connection.username" value="xxx"/>

<property name="jboss.entity.manager.jndi.name" value="java:/PublicUserSession"/
/properties
/persistence-unit
/persistence

This is in the META-INF folder of a war file, but I have read in one post the persistence unit in war file is not (yet) supported in jboss4.x ??

Is this why I am getting jndi-naming NameNotFoundException.

For WAR files, JBoss 4.0.x does not yet support deploying a persistence archive with WEB-INF/lib as required by the spec.


so, how to access entity jndi's in a jb4 war file? What is the workaround?
