For a standalone JNDI provider, we do recommend using our own Spring based JNDI provider which is the default in the stand alone ServiceMix server.

This is provided in xbean-spring-common (currently version 2.4) and, a bonus, is not confined to ServiceMix either. It can be used for unit testing in your dev environment and more.

To use it, add the following jndi.properties file to your classpath

java.naming.factory.initial = org.apache.servicemixxbean.jbispring.jndi.SpringInitialContextFactory

Note that you can also add a line

java.naming.provider.url = classpath:foo/bar.xml

Where the value is any valid Spring resource string such as a file://foo/bar.xml^{Image Removed} or a URL such as http://acme.com/whatnot.xml^{Image Removed}. or classpath:jndi-entries.xml.

. The default value is assumed to be classpath://jndi.xml.

When InitialContext is called upon, the JndiProvider will respond.

For the JNDI entries you need, create Then you can drop the following jndi.xml file on the classpath, which is a regular Spring XML configuration file which creates with a JNDI context bean (called jndi) Wiki Markup{snippet:id=jndi|lang=xml|url=http://cvs.servicemix.codehaus.org/*checkout*/servicemix/base/src/main/release/conf/jndi.xmll?rev=HEAD}, which by default is located in a file called jndi.xml on the classpath
