Class NamingEntry

  • Direct Known Subclasses:
    EnvEntry, Link, Resource, Transaction

    public abstract class NamingEntry
    extends Object
    NamingEntry

    Base class for all jndi related entities. Instances of subclasses of this class are declared in jetty.xml or in a webapp's WEB-INF/jetty-env.xml file.

    NOTE: that all NamingEntries will be bound in a single namespace. The "global" level is just in the top level context. The "local" level is a context specific to a webapp.

      • NamingEntry

        protected NamingEntry​(Object scope,
                              String jndiName)
                       throws NamingException
        Create a naming entry.
        Parameters:
        scope - an object representing the scope of the name to be bound into jndi, where null means jvm scope.
        jndiName - the name that will be associated with an object bound into jndi
        Throws:
        NamingException
      • NamingEntry

        protected NamingEntry​(String jndiName)
                       throws NamingException
        Create a NamingEntry. A NamingEntry is a name associated with a value which can later be looked up in JNDI by a webapp. We create the NamingEntry and put it into JNDI where it can be linked to the webapp's env-entry, resource-ref etc entries.
        Parameters:
        jndiName - the name of the object which will eventually be in java:comp/env
        Throws:
        NamingException - if unable to create naming entry
    • Method Detail

      • bindToENC

        public void bindToENC​(String localName)
                       throws NamingException
        Add a java:comp/env binding for the object represented by this NamingEntry, but bind it as the name supplied
        Parameters:
        localName - the local name to bind
        Throws:
        NamingException - if unable to bind
      • unbindENC

        public void unbindENC()
        Unbind this NamingEntry from a java:comp/env
      • release

        public void release()
        Unbind this NamingEntry entirely
      • getJndiName

        public String getJndiName()
        Get the unique name of the object relative to the scope
        Returns:
        the unique jndi name of the object
      • getJndiNameInScope

        public String getJndiNameInScope()
        Get the name of the object, fully qualified with the scope
        Returns:
        the name of the object, fully qualified with the scope
      • save

        protected void save​(Object object)
                     throws NamingException
        Save the NamingEntry for later use.

        Saving is done by binding the NamingEntry itself, and the value it represents into JNDI. In this way, we can link to the value it represents later, but also still retrieve the NamingEntry itself too.

        The object is bound at the jndiName passed in. This NamingEntry is bound at __/jndiName.

        eg

         jdbc/foo    : DataSource
         __/jdbc/foo : NamingEntry
         
        Parameters:
        object - the object to save
        Throws:
        NamingException - if unable to save
