JNDI support in WebSphere Application Server
The product includes a name server to provide shared access
to Java™ components, and an implementation of the javax.naming
JNDI package which supports user access to the name server through
the Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) naming interface.
The product does not provide implementations for:
javax.naming.directory
orjavax.naming.ldap
packages
Also, the product does not support interfaces defined in the javax.naming.event
package.
However, to provide access to LDAP servers, the development kit shipped with the product supports the implementation of:
javax.naming.ldap
andcom.sun.jndi.ldap.LdapCtxFactory
The WebSphere® Application Server JNDI implementation is based on the JNDI interface, and was tested with the 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.
