JNDI helper class

The com.ibm.websphere.naming.JndiHelper class contains static methods to simplify common JNDI programming and administration tasks.

These helper class functions include:

• Recursively creating subcontexts

  import com.ibm.websphere.naming.JndiHelper;
  
  ...
  
  try {
     Context startingContext = new InitialContext();  
     startingContext = startingContext.lookup("com/mycompany");
  
     // Create each intermediate subcontext, if necessary, as well as leaf context.
     // AlreadyBoundException is not thrown.
     JndiHelper.recursiveCreateSubcontext(startingContext, "apps/
     accounting");
  
  }
  catch (NamingException e){
     // Handle other errors.
  }
  

• Rebinding objects and creating intermediate contexts that do not already exist

  import com.ibm.websphere.naming.JndiHelper;
  
  ...
  
  try {
     Context startingContext = new InitialContext();
  
     // Creates each intermediate subcontext, if necessary, and rebinds object.
     JndiHelper.recursiveRebind(startingContext, "com/mycompany/apps/accounting",
  someObject);
  }
  catch (NamingException e){
     // Handle other errors.
  }
