JNDI support in WebSphere Application Server
IBM WAS includes a name server to provide shared access to Java components, and an implementation of the javax.naming package which supports user access to the WAS name server through the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI)
WAS does not provide implementations for:
Also, WAS does not support interfaces defined in the javax.naming.event package.
However, to provide access to LDAP servers, the development kit shipped with WAS supports Sun's implementation of:
- javax.naming.ldap
- com.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory
WAS's JNDI implementation is based on version 1.2 of the JNDI interface, and was tested with V1.2.1 of Sun's JNDI Service Provider Interface (SPI).
The default behavior of this JNDI implementation is adequate for most users. However, users with specific requirements can control certain aspects of JNDI behavior.
