How to use the PropertiesFileInitialContextFactory

...

By setting the JNDI Initial Context Factory and URL as below it is possible to load any File from the locally mounted file system to use for JNDI purposes. The format of the file is described in the next section.

No Format

java.naming.factory.initial = org.apache.qpid.jndi.PropertiesFileInitialContextFactory
java.naming.provider.url = <path to JNDI File>

...

This is the example properties file.

No Format

# register some connection factories
# connectionfactory.[jndiname] = [ConnectionURL]
connectionfactory.local = amqp://guest:guest@clientid/testpath?brokerlist='vm://:1'

# register some queues in JNDI using the form
# queue.[jndiName] = [physicalName]
queue.MyQueue = example.MyQueue

# register some topics in JNDI using the form
# topic.[jndiName] = [physicalName]
topic.ibmStocks = stocks.nyse.ibm

# Register an AMQP destination in JNDI
#   NOTE: Qpid currently only supports direct,topics and headers
# destination.[jniName] = [BindingURL]
destination.direct = direct://amq.direct//directQueue
