I have developed resource factory which produces desired objects and is accessible through JNDI context implementing javax.naming.spi.ObjectFactory. It is possible to register such a factory in tomcat's server.xml. However our new customer requires Jboss 4.0.x.
I have found a lot of information regarding jboss-web.xml file, but noting how to actually register factory in jboss JNDI.

So far I know Jboss offers 3 of box (JNDIBindingServiceMgr, NamingAlias and ExternalContext) context, but non of them fill fill my needs.

I could have managed to successfully create JNDI reference through org.jboss.naming.JNDIBindingServiceMgr but this is limited to Java Beans or text values. What I need is to hook implementation javax.naming.spi.ObjectFactory interface to jboss JNDI.

web.xml

<web-app version="2.4">
 <description>test web application which tests custom jndi context</description>
<resource-env-ref>
 <description>
 Object factory for test resource manager.

 <resource-env-ref-name>
 res/TestresourceManager
 </resource-env-ref-name>
 <resource-env-ref-type>
 java.lang.String
 </resource-env-ref-type>
</resource-env-ref>
</web-app>
