Configuring with Maven2

1. Add simple-jndi dependency to pom.xml:

     <dependency>
       <groupId>simple-jndi</groupId>
       <artifactId>simple-jndi</artifactId>
       <version>0.11.1</version>
       <scope>test</scope>
     </dependency>
     

2. Add your jdbc driver dependency with test to pom.xml

3. Tell the JVM to use simple-jndi by creating jndi.properties in the test resource directory. By default the directory is src/test/resources. The file jndi.properties contains the following lines. The properties org.osjava.sj.colon.replace and org.osjava.sj.delimiter are used in this example because the application being tested will run on Tomcat on Windows.

     java.naming.factory.initial=org.osjava.sj.SimpleContextFactory
     org.osjava.sj.root=src/test/resources/simple-jndi
     org.osjava.sj.colon.replace=--
     org.osjava.sj.delimiter=/
   

4. Create the files to define the JNDI datasource myDataSource. Please note the directory below is in the directory defined by os.java.js.root.

        /java--comp
          /env
            default.properties
       

   default.properties contains the following:

     myDataSource/type=javax.sql.DataSource
     myDataSource/driver=<jdbc driver class>
     myDataSource/url=<jdbc url>
     myDataSource/user=foo
     myDataSource/password=bar
