"jAVA:env/comp" JNDI lookups in Websphere 6.0.1

Tags: websphere, jndi, lookup
Hi,
I am using websphere version 6 .0.1 am quite new to websphere. For JNDI lookups i give the full path example "ejb/test/someEJB" this works fine and i am able to run my small application. As soon as i append "java:env/comp" in front of the name websphere gives Namenot FoundException . It complains about java: not being set.
What is it that i need to do to make java: lookups.

2. How can i do lookups on environment variables defined in the web app. For example i want to store class name against a key as environment variable . I want to do a JNDI lookup and get the class instance.What server configuration is required to achieve it.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can enlighten me on this issue.

hi,

Do you make these lookups from inside your web application ?

If you want to create environment entries in your web application and acces to them from your java code :
déclaration for your variable in the web.xml file :
<env-entry>
<description>welcome message</description>
<env-entry-name>greetings</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value>Welcome to the Inventory Control System</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>

java code :
javax.naming.Context ctx =
new javax.naming.InitialContext();
javax.naming.Context env =
ctx.lookup("java:comp/env");

// obtain the greetings message
//configured by the deployer
String str = (String) env.lookup("greetings");

2. If you want to obtain a reference to your ejb via an "indirection" use this :
in the web.xml :
<ejb-ref id="EjbRef_02">
   <ejb-ref-name>ejb/DualEntityRemoteHome</ejb-ref-name>
   <ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
   <home>dual.ejb.DualEntityRemoteHome</home>
   <remote>dual.ejb.DualEntityRemote</remote>
   <ejb-link>DualEJBModule01.jar#DualEntity</ejb-link>
</ejb-ref>
<ejb-local-ref id="EJBLocalRef_02">
   <ejb-ref-name>ejb/DualEntityLocalHome</ejb-ref-name>
   <ejb-ref-type>Entity</ejb-ref-type>
   <local-home>dual.ejb.DualEntityLocalHome</local-home>
   <local>dual.ejb.DualEntityLocal</local>
   <ejb-link>DualEJBModule01.jar#DualEntity</ejb-link>
</ejb-local-ref>

the lookup :
DualEntityLocalHome homeObject = (DualEntityLocalHome)initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/DualEntityLocalHome");
or
DualEntityRemoteHome homeObject = (DualEntityRemoteHome)initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/DualEntityRemoteHome");

Hi Emmanuel,
Thanks for your reply.
I am doing what you just mentioned above but my question is i am not able to do lookups using "java:comp/env" .websphere complains about java not being set. example that you have given
DualEntityLocalHome homeObject = (DualEntityLocalHome)initCtx.lookup("java:comp/env/ejb/DualEntityLocalHome"); fails but if i do the samething in the following manner.
DualEntityLocalHome homeObject = (DualEntityLocalHome)initCtx.lookup("ejb/DualEntityLocalHome"); it succeeds.that means i can't do the following
javax.naming.Context env =
ctx.lookup("java:comp/env");
So the question is if websphere by default cannot lookup  "java:comp/env" what setting does the server require or in other words how do i configure it.

I hope you will be able to shed light on this issue.

Cheers
Amit Sood

hi,

The java:comp/env context is reachable only from inside the web app. A servlet, a jsp or a single java class placed inside the web application can access this context.
A class outside the application (in another jvm for instance) will not be able to.

Emmanuel
