Class InitialContextFactory

  InitialContextFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

InitialContextFactory

public class InitialContextFactory

extends Object

implements InitialContextFactory

InitialContextFactory creates an initial context for use when running outside of an application server environment without a name server. After creating an initial context, the data sources specified in the properties file are created and bound to names in the context. The name of the properties file is obtained from the ApplicationContext. The main program should set the properties in the ApplicationContext before creating an initial context. The following properties are used.

com.xavax.xstore.driver

The classname of the JDBC driver.

com.xavax.xstore.sourceList

A list of data sources to be created and bound to names in the initial context.

com.xavax.xstore.*.url

The URL for a data source (where * is the data source name).

com.xavax.xstore.*.username

The username for a data source.

com.xavax.xstore.*.password

The password for a data source.

com.xavax.xstore.*.poolSize

The maximum number of connections in the pool.
