package hello;
import javax.naming.*;
import org.firebirdsql.pool.*;
public class HelloBindJndi {
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
}
Reference ref = new Reference(
"org.firebirdsql.pool.FBConnectionPoolDataSource");
ref.add(new StringRefAddr("maxPoolSize", "5"));
ref.add(new StringRefAddr("minPoolSize", "2"));
ref.add(new StringRefAddr("maxStatements", "10"));
ref.add(new StringRefAddr("maxIdleTime", "108000"));
ref.add(new StringRefAddr("database",
"localhost/3050:C:/db/employee.fdb));
ref.add(new StringRefAddr("user", "SYSDBA"));
ref.add(new StringRefAddr("password", "masterkey"));
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
ctx.bind("jdbc/test", ref);
Illustration 2.9.: Example of initializing and binding FBConnectionPoolDataSource reference.
1. Create reference instance for the FBConnectionPoolDataSource. According
to the JNDI specification we could specify another type here, however the
identifier specified here is used later by the object factory to check whether it is
responsible for materializing the specified reference. Our object factory accepts
only references with the ID equal to
"org.firebirdsql.pool.FBConnectionPoolDataSource".
2. Fill the pooling properties as reference addresses.
3. Fill the database connection properties. Steps 2 and 3 look quite strange from
the programming point of view, especially compared to the Illustration 2.8.
However, this approach is very elegant if we consider reading the configuration
from the file. In this case we no longer have to use Java reflection to set needed
properties – object factory does it for us.
4. Create JNDI initial context and bind the reference to the specified name.
