Adding custom object to JNDI on Weblogic 10

Question

Is it possible to add a custom object (String or URL) to JNDI using Weblogic Server Administration Console (Weblogic 10.0) or by editing server\'s configuration file (config.xml

Answer 1

I don't think so. Quoting Load objects in the JNDI tree:

Using the Administration Console, you can load WebLogic Server J2EE services and components, such as RMI, JMS, EJBs, and JDBC Data Sources, in the JNDI tree.

And indeed, I couldn't find a way to add a String or URL using the console.

AFAIK, the standard way is to put an env-entry in your deployment descriptor (web.xml, ejb-jar.xml):

    string/foo
    java.lang.String
    foobar



    url/bar
    java.net.URL
    http://foobar/
