Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) is a standard Java interface for accessing distributed objects and services by name. It provides a portable, unified interface for naming and directory services. The JNDI specification is independent of any specific directory or naming service such as LDAP, NDS, DCE/CDS, or NIS.
The EAServer JNDI implementation includes the JNDI service provider interface (SPI), which enables you to use a variety of custom directory and naming services.
Beginning in version 6.0, EAServer supports JNDI for EJB and JMS clients, and when required, for J2EE compliance. JNDI is no longer supported for CORBA clients, which should use the SessionManager CORBA interfaces. See the EAServer CORBA Components Guide.
When you start the server, the JNDI classes required
for the server’s JDK version are configured automatically.
